Question
Can a male with Hepatitis B have children?
Answer
Hepatitis B is primarily transmitted through blood, mother-to-child, and sexual contact. Generally, if the female partner is healthy, the chance of transmission from the male to the offspring is very small. Guidance: It is recommended that you have the female partner tested for Hepatitis B surface antigens and antibodies. If antibodies are present, there is no need to worry. Just ensure proper preventive measures are taken at the time of childbirth. Additionally, try to avoid blood contact with the child before they develop antibodies. If the female partner already has Hepatitis B, it is important to implement mother-to-child transmission prevention measures to greatly reduce the risk of transmission to the child.
