Patient's question:
Doctor, I am a 31-year-old woman, and I recently want to have a child. However, I am an HBsAg-positive carrier of hepatitis B, so I have many concerns about getting pregnant. Therefore, I would like to ask you, can a person with minor hepatitis B (HBsAg-positive) have children?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description of the situation: In theory, it is possible to have children with this type of minor positive for hepatitis B. For individuals with hepatitis B, as long as the virus is not replicating in large quantities and there is no liver damage, the likelihood of transmitting the disease to the child is generally low. This can be effectively prevented through the spread interruption method. To put it simply and in plain terms, it means that the child should receive the hepatitis B vaccine and hepatitis B antibodies during the second period of birth.
