Patient's question:
A friend's sister-in-law contracted hepatitis, but it wasn't inherited through generations in the family. She got infected while attending school and living in a dormitory. She has been receiving treatment ever since but hasn't fully recovered. Now, she has been divorced for 2 years and wants to have a baby. How can she get pregnant with hepatitis?Doctor's answer:
Normally, hepatitis can be spread through sexual contact, but the chance is not high. If you have already been infected, there is no need to worry too much. As long as you get vaccinated immediately after the baby is born, it can prevent the disease. For pregnant women with liver diseases, if they have high transaminase levels, they should first go to a professional liver disease treatment center for routine tests, including careful checks for antibodies of hepatitis A, B, C, etc. If it is not hepatitis B, there is no need to worry too much. In addition to treating hepatitis, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and always maintain a pleasant mood to enhance their physical fitness and slow down the recovery process.
