Patient's question:
I have been diagnosed with hepatitis B for three years, but I haven't had any symptoms in between. My liver function tests are normal. This year, my husband and I are planning to have a child, but I don't know if my condition will affect the child or if it will be passed on to the next generation.Doctor's answer:
If liver function is normal, it is possible to have children. However, antiviral treatment and interruption treatment are essential to prevent transmission to the child. Interruption treatment, short-term interruption treatment, does not cause significant harm to the body and can interrupt mother-to-child transmission. My good friend, this can be done by administering hepatitis B immune globulin during the 7th, 8th, or 9th month of pregnancy. When the child is born, it is best to promptly administer the hepatitis B vaccine and hepatitis B immune globulin. Patients face the harm of chronic hepatitis B, and we should promptly follow the principle of symptomatic treatment. Avoid avoiding medical treatment. If chronic hepatitis B is not cured after long-term treatment, it is necessary to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
