I have hepatitis B virus, but I have a girlfriend now. What should I do?

1, simple hepatitis B virus carriers are highly contagious and have little damage to the liver. Do not take medicine. As long as prevention is in place, it will not be transmitted to your girlfriend. What are you afraid of?

Tell your girlfriend to get vaccinated at once. With antibodies, it won't be contagious, so you can rest assured.

3, what you should pay attention to is: 1, be careful not to be too tired, give up drinking and be optimistic. 2. Check liver function and hepatitis B regularly, and don't worry too much. Some people are carriers all their lives, and they don't necessarily get hepatitis B. Even if they do, formal treatment can achieve clinical recovery. Don't be afraid!

Maybe the following information is useful to you:

Andy Lau, a Hong Kong superstar, announced that he was a carrier of hepatitis B virus, which surprised people. But beyond that, people admire Liu's fearless spirit. I hope everyone can draw strength from Liu superstar's frankness, that is, as long as the protection is proper, hepatitis B virus carriers will not bring harm to everyone's health.

Two days ago, Andy Lau, an amphibious superstar of Hong Kong film and television songs, was invited as the publicity ambassador for hepatitis B prevention and treatment. He unexpectedly said that he chose to participate in this activity because he is a carrier of hepatitis B virus. Liu Shijin, M.D., a member of the Hepatology Committee of the Chinese Society of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, and director of the Department of Hepatology of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, 302 Hospital of the People's Liberation Army, said that many people are wary and afraid of hepatitis B virus carriers, and they are mistaken for chronic hepatitis B patients and are afraid of infection. These worries are unnecessary and extremely wrong. Because the transmission route of hepatitis B virus is blood, mother-to-child and sex, shaking hands, eating at the same table and other contacts without blood contact will generally not be infected with hepatitis B virus.

■89% of HBV carriers have no symptoms.

Hepatitis B virus carriers exist widely in all aspects of society, and they have no obvious discomfort themselves. They are often found to be positive for HBsAg in an accidental physical examination (kindergarten, school, conscription, joining the army, etc.). If they don't have a physical examination, they may spend their lives unconsciously, or they may suddenly develop hepatitis or even cirrhosis after years of carrying the virus.

Dr. Liu pointed out that once the human body is infected with hepatitis B virus, there will be many results, only a small number of people show acute hepatitis B, with obvious symptoms of hepatitis (fatigue, loss of appetite, yellow urine, yellow eyes, yellow skin and so on. ). Most infected people (80%-90%) have no symptoms, and a considerable number of immune mechanisms are normal. With their own resistance, they gradually eliminated hepatitis B virus, basically unconsciously. When they accidentally took blood tests in the future, they found that the antibody system of hepatitis B virus was positive. There are still a few people infected with hepatitis B virus. Because of their imperfect or abnormal immune system, there is no way to completely eliminate the virus, which leads to the virus remaining and taking root. This is especially true for young infected people, who exist in the form of recessive subclinical infection or are in a state of chronic persistent infection. Most of them carry the virus for a long time and have no obvious symptoms. These people have normal liver function tests and have no obvious discomfort. They were once called healthy carriers of hepatitis B virus or asymptomatic carriers of hepatitis B virus. A few gradually evolved into dominant chronic hepatitis.

Dr. Liu pointed out that hepatitis B virus carriers are generally not diagnosed as hepatitis patients and are not treated as hepatitis patients.

■ Don't be afraid of HBV airlines.

Liu Shijin said that once the hepatitis B virus carriers are diagnosed, people around them are very alert and afraid, mistaking the hepatitis B virus carriers for chronic hepatitis B patients and fearing to be infected with hepatitis B virus. These worries are unnecessary and extremely wrong. What's more, the transmission route of hepatitis B virus is blood, mother-to-child, medical infection, sexual contact and intravenous drug use. Daily work or life contact, such as office, shaking hands, hugging, sharing a room, eating at the same table, using the toilet and other bloodless contact, generally will not be infected with hepatitis B virus. In China, hepatitis B virus carriers are not regarded as hepatitis patients. They can work and study as usual, but they can't donate blood, join the army, and work as nurses, chefs and salespeople in the imported food industry.

Dr. Liu said that hepatitis B virus carriers may transmit their own virus to others, but after people are infected with hepatitis B virus, most people can rely on their own resistance to remove the virus. Most of the 65438+300 million chronic hepatitis B virus-infected people in China are in a state of "peaceful coexistence" with the virus. In other words, infection doesn't necessarily mean getting sick. There are many opportunities for adults to be infected with hepatitis B virus, but few cases cause hepatitis B, and hepatitis B couples accompany each other all the year round. One side has hepatitis B, and the other side just doesn't (laboratory tests often find that hepatitis B antibodies have formed). This shows that the harm of adult hepatitis B infection is very small, and colleagues or friends of hepatitis B patients do not have to abandon or avoid it. In fact, hepatitis B virus carriers are not as terrible as they thought.

■ How to get along with HBV operators?

If there are HBV carriers among relatives, friends, colleagues and family members, how can we live and work with them? In this regard, Dr. Liu suggested that young couples should postpone marriage if they find themselves in the active period of hepatitis B; If you are only a hepatitis B virus carrier, you can get married, but the uninfected party should be vaccinated with hepatitis B vaccine (***3 shots). It is recommended to wear a condom when having sex. When pregnant with the next generation, if the man is a carrier of hepatitis B virus, the woman should be vaccinated with hepatitis B vaccine all the time, which can effectively prevent the infection of the woman and the vertical transmission from mother to child; If the woman is a hepatitis B virus carrier, she can provide passive and active combined immunization for newborns, and the protection rate can reach over 90%.

Family members infected with chronic hepatitis B virus, it is best to use towels, washbasins, cups and other daily necessities alone. Women with chronic hepatitis B virus infection should properly handle sanitary products during menstruation, and their underwear should be disinfected with peracetic acid and glutaraldehyde. Spouses, children and close contacts of hepatitis B virus carriers should be vaccinated.

I am a doctor, I wish you happiness!
