Am I allowed to have a child?

Patient's question:

I am a chronic hepatitis B virus carrier. During a thorough examination, my liver function is normal, but one of the five hepatitis B markers (HBsAg, HBeAg, anti-HBe, anti-HBc, and anti-HBs) is highly positive. I am encountering this for the first time, so I am not very familiar with it. Can I have children?

Doctor's answer:

It is possible, but it requires the production of antibodies before delivery. Before getting pregnant, both partners should undergo a comprehensive and thorough examination. It is important to relax and stay calm. Women need to take folic acid.
In addition to treating liver disease, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a positive mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process. Eat more fruits and vegetables, have a balanced diet, and avoid small snacks. Reduce the intake of sweet foods, cold, greasy, fried foods.
