Question

A Hepatitis B virus carrier, who has no symptoms and a stable condition, wants to understand what preparations need to be made before childbirth?

Answer

Before preparing for childbirth, the Hepatitis B virus carrier should undergo a comprehensive physical examination to ensure there are no abnormalities. If necessary, they should actively seek treatment and consider pregnancy only after the condition has stabilized. During pregnancy, attention should be paid to diet, and activities such as housework and fatigue should be avoided, with adequate rest recommended. During pregnancy, sexual activity does not need to be restricted, but it should be prohibited during the postpartum period. Additionally, postpartum regular check-ups of the condition should not be neglected. Generally, the prognosis for Hepatitis B virus carriers is good, but some patients may need regular treatment to achieve stable conditions. I hope these suggestions will be helpful.
