Question
How many times does the Hepatitis B immune globulin need to be injected? My baby has already received one dose at birth and another at one month old.
Answer
Firstly, it is necessary to check liver function and viral DNA. Liver function should be checked regularly during pregnancy. If the husband has not produced antibodies, a vaccine needs to be administered. Pregnant women should receive one dose of Hepatitis B immune globulin each month during the 7th, 8th, and 9th months of pregnancy. The baby should receive one dose of Hepatitis B immune globulin immediately after birth, and the first dose of Hepatitis B vaccine should be administered three days after birth, followed by the second dose one month later, and the third dose at six months. It is recommended to deliver by cesarean section, as this will greatly increase the chances of giving birth to a healthy baby.
