Patient's question:
I am a minor positive for hepatitis B, 18 years old. Recently, I have frequently experienced nausea symptoms. Previously, I was normal. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
Friend, you don't need to worry too much about this situation. The so-called "minor triple positive" for hepatitis B refers to the five indicators in the detailed "two pairs and a half" test for hepatitis B, where the surface antigen (HBsAg), E antibody (HBeAb), and core antibody (HBcAb) are all positive. Whenever "minor triple positive" appears, it indicates acute or chronic hepatitis B, with the presence of hepatitis B virus copies in the body, indicating a hepatitis B virus copy state. The "minor triple positive" is usually derived from the "major triple positive" and represents a certain degree of immunity produced by the body against the E antigen. As long as liver function is normal and HBV DNA is not abnormal, treatment is not necessary.
