Question
Can a woman get pregnant and have a child if the man has chronic hepatitis B?
Answer
If a man has chronic hepatitis B, his partner can still become pregnant and have a child. During childbirth, the mother should inform her attending physician that she has had hepatitis B, so that the newborn can receive the hepatitis B vaccine and high-titer anti-hepatitis B immunoglobulin within six hours of birth to prevent the transmission of the hepatitis B virus. Breastfeeding is not recommended at this time, as it takes two to three months for the body to produce hepatitis B antibodies. Once antibodies are confirmed, breastfeeding can begin. If liver function is normal, there is no need to worry too much. In daily life, some liver-protecting medications such as creatinine tablets and liver-protecting tablets can be taken, and spicy and greasy foods should be avoided. Eat more vegetables and fruits to supplement vitamins and proteins. Pay attention to rest and avoid staying up late. I hope these suggestions can help you, and wish you health and happiness, and soon have a healthy baby.
