Question
Can hepatitis patients have children?
Answer
When hepatitis patients are preparing for childbearing, they should consult with a doctor and take appropriate precautions. Generally, if the hepatitis condition is stable, and the baby is immediately vaccinated against hepatitis B and given hepatitis B immunoglobulin after birth, the risk of mother-to-child transmission can be effectively reduced. Additionally, it is recommended to avoid breastfeeding and take measures to ensure that the baby’s diet is separate from the patient’s diet. At the same time, efforts should be made to minimize close contact with the baby to reduce the risk of transmission. Under the guidance of a doctor, patients can take measures to ensure the health and safety of the baby.
