Can the hepatitis B virus be transmitted through breastfeeding?

Patient's question:

Can hepatitis B virus carriers breastfeed? What check-up reports are needed? Previous tests were below 50.

Doctor's answer:

Is 50 the number of viruses? If liver function is normal, it is acceptable to breastfeed when the virus count is normal. During the period of breastfeeding, liver function and virus levels should be rechecked periodically. If liver function and virus levels are normal, breastfeeding is acceptable. The daily treatment for hepatitis B patients primarily involves symptomatic treatment. Patients can take many oral medications, supplement with various vitamins, and pay attention to self-care, proper diet, and avoid cold foods. We hope hepatitis B patients can recover as soon as possible! Thank you!
