Does hepatitis spread?

Patient's question:

Her parents both have hepatitis B, and her brother might have it too. After she told me, I realized we had sex without using a condom before. Can hepatitis be transmitted?

Doctor's answer:

This situation is generally never infectious. Long-term contact can lead to infection, but since you were using a condom at the time, it would be absolutely impossible to get infected. Please rest assured. If you need to be in close contact for a long time, you can get the hepatitis B vaccine. In addition to treating hepatitis, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood at all times to enhance their physical fitness and slow down the recovery process.
