Patient's question:
I am 38 years old. Recently, I feel that my liver is very tired. I haven't had a good appetite, and at night, I always feel a sharp pain in my stomach. I went to a nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it was liver disease. They advised me to get injections. I would like to ask if having hepatitis B () as a male affects marriage and fertility?Doctor's answer:
Males with can normally conceive. It is recommended that you regularly undergo tests for liver function, hepatitis B markers, HBV DNA quantification, and upper abdominal ultrasound. If any abnormalities are found, please promptly return to the hospital for follow-up. Close contacts should undergo thorough testing for hepatitis B markers. If the hepatitis B surface antibody is negative, it is advised to receive the hepatitis B vaccine to prevent infection. Newborns should receive the hepatitis B vaccine promptly at birth and complete the full course of vaccination as prescribed.
