Patient's question:
I found out that I am a carrier of the hepatitis B virus. I'm not worried about my own health, but I'm afraid of passing it on to my baby. I'm still doing well now, and my body hasn't shown any symptoms again. What should I do after finding out I'm pregnant with hepatitis B?Doctor's answer:
Detected as a carrier of the hepatitis B virus, it's not a big deal. No treatment is needed. Administer the hepatitis B high-efficiency immunoglobulin within 24 hours after the baby is born to prevent mother-to-child transmission. Rest well, avoid drinking beer, and refrain from spicy foods. Regular follow-up tests are recommended. For severe liver disease patients, it is advised to seek medical attention immediately and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Avoid using medication blindly to prevent worsening the condition.
