Patient's question:
Hepatitis B carrier with normal ALT and bilirubin levels, but I am currently breastfeeding and unsure if it's safe for the child. I want to know if a person with chronic hepatitis B can breastfeed?Doctor's answer:
After the child is born, vaccination with the hepatitis B vaccine within 24 hours can prevent infection and allow breastfeeding. Your condition must be treated correctly to have a chance of a quick recovery. Hepatitis B is difficult to cure because the vast majority of hepatitis B patients have immune tolerance and do not produce an autoimmune response to the hepatitis B virus (HBV), which leads to the condition being incurable. Generally, drugs are difficult to. Therefore, adopting the correct treatment method to force the body's immune system to produce an autoimmune response to the hepatitis B virus is the key to a quick recovery. Facing the impact of "big three positive," we should promptly implement the principle of symptomatic treatment and avoid delaying medical consultation. If the "big three positive" condition does not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly switch to a new treatment plan.
