Patient's question:
Is my boyfriend, who is a carrier of the hepatitis B virus, at risk of infection? We have had sex already, many times, and I only recently found out.Doctor's answer:
According to the current situation you mentioned, hepatitis B virus is generally transmitted through sexual contact. Your boyfriend is a hepatitis B carrier. First, is your boyfriend currently an "" (HBeAg-positive) or an "" (HBeAg-negative)? "" will not transmit the virus, only "" can.I suggest you go to the hospital immediately to get tested for the five hepatitis B markers and liver function. If it is not contagious, start the hepatitis B vaccination prevention right away. Otherwise, seek early treatment. Hepatitis B is a serious condition, and patients should seek timely treatment and follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care, maintain a proper diet, and avoid worsening the condition.
The above answer is hoped to assist you. Thank you.
