Patient's question:
I have hepatitis B with a high viral load, but my liver function is normal. I am now pregnant. Is it safe to have a vaginal delivery?Doctor's answer:
Patients with hepatitis B () are generally advised to have a cesarean section when they go to the hospital, as the risk of transmission to the fetus is relatively low with this method. After the baby is born, they should be immediately given anesthesia along with high-titer hepatitis B immune globulin and hepatitis B vaccine. In daily life, attention should be paid to diet. Avoid consuming excessively greasy foods. Patients facing the challenges of hepatitis B should actively undergo testing and treatment, without avoiding medical visits. If hepatitis B is not cured after prolonged treatment, the treatment plan should be promptly adjusted.
