Patient's question:
My wife is a carrier of the hepatitis B virus, and I knew about this before the divorce. However, at that time, because our relationship was strong, I didn't think too much about it. After the marriage, I was afraid that the child might inherit the virus through intergenerational transmission and never had the courage to have one. But last week, she was unexpectedly found to be pregnant after a thorough check-up. Now I am in a state of confusion. What should I do if a hepatitis B-infected woman becomes pregnant?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that she receive anesthetic immunoglobulin during the 7th, 8th, and 9th months of pregnancy. Within 12 hours of the child's birth, the child should also receive one dose of anesthetic to ensure the child's health! It is best to conduct a timely and thorough examination after the child is born, in addition to treating hepatitis B. It is also 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. Avoid spicy and stimulating foods, do not stay up late, and participate in more physical exercise.
