Health Question & Answer
Answers:
I find some informations :
if your sex partner has HBV you must see a physician for hepatitis B blood testing.If, according to the blood test you have never had hepatitis B, you should be vaccinated.After the series of three shots you must return to the doctor for blood test to make sure the vaccine protected you.Use condoms until is proven to be protected from HBV.
About pregnancy:
if you are pregnant you should be tested for hepatitis B.ALL pregnant women should be tested for hepatitis B.Testing is especially important for women who fall into high-risk groups such as health-care workers,spouses or partners living with an infected person,etc.
If you tested possitive and are pregnant, the virus can be passed on your newborn baby during delivery.If your doctor is aware that you have hepatitis B, he or she can make arrangements to have the proper medications in the delivery room to prevent your baby from being infected.IF THE PROPER PROCEDURES ARE NOT FOLLOWED, YOUR BABY HAS A 95% CHANCE OF DEVELOPING CHRONIC HEPATITIS B!!!
THERE IS NO SECOND CHANCE TO PROTECT YOUR NEWBORN BABY!!!
