Patient's question:
Does hepatitis B with only the first item positive require treatment? What is the impact on pregnancy if the woman has and the man is a carrier?Doctor's answer:
If it is a small positive for hepatitis B, or if the first item is positive (indicating a hepatitis B patient or carrier), it is generally not highly contagious. It is very difficult to convert hepatitis B load to negative (currently, there is no completely curative medication available in China). However, liver function can be monitored. If liver function is normal, there is no problem, and pregnancy can proceed normally. After the baby is born, a test should be conducted to check the baby's hepatitis B load, and the baby should receive high-dose immune globulin and the hepatitis B vaccine.In addition, during the treatment of hepatitis B, in addition to immediate medical intervention, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important. The patient must always maintain a positive mood and eat a balanced diet to avoid unnecessary negative impacts on the complete recovery from hepatitis B.
