Patient's question:
Hepatitis B virus carrier is taking Adefovir dipivoxil, now pregnant for one month, can the baby be kept?Doctor's answer:
You are just a carrier, but the routes of infection are the same as those for hepatitis B patients, namely through blood, mother-to-child transmission (especially breastfeeding), and sexual transmission. If you have a child, the likelihood of him being infected with hepatitis B is very high. It is recommended that you discuss this matter with your family. If you really want this child, in addition to regular and thorough check-ups, you should also avoid breastfeeding after birth. It is hoped that you will carefully consider your decision.The hepatitis B condition is very serious. It is recommended that patients seek timely medical treatment and follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care, maintain a proper diet, and avoid worsening the condition.
