Being HBsAg positive doesn't mean you have to put off pregnancy. With the right monitoring, most women in your situation go on to have healthy pregnancies and healthy babies.
Next Steps
Get your liver function and hepatitis B viral markers checked, and share both partners' results with an obstetrician working alongside a hepatologist.
Health Tips
There are established steps to protect your baby around delivery, so this needs planning before conception, not just reassurance.
