Patient's question:
What should pregnant women with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive () pay attention to during pregnancy? It seems they need to get some kind of immunoglobulin shot. Hello, when should they get the shot? How many times?Doctor's answer:
The hepatitis B virus is primarily spread through blood, mother-to-child transmission, and sexual contact. Therefore, it is recommended that hepatitis B pregnant women can start receiving hepatitis B immune globulin anesthesia from the seventh month of pregnancy. During the 789 months, one dose should be administered each month. After the baby is born, one dose should be administered within six hours of birth and another at the full moon. This can effectively prevent the mother-to-child transmission of the hepatitis B virus. In addition to treating chronic hepatitis B, 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.
