Question
Tell me: I tested positive for hepatitis E, what is IgM negative? Do I have a virus? I found out that there is no need to treat hepatitis E, no need for drugs, but it will go away on its own. So can I ask how long it takes to eliminate the virus? I would like to thank you.

Hi,
You tested for hepatitis E, the IgG index is positive, the IgM index is negative, which means you have had hepatitis E before and now do not You have hepatitis E. Most hepatitis E resolves on its own, there is no need to treat hepatitis E if the resistance is good, in some cases, the disease progresses.
If you still have questions and need further advice, you can go to a reputable medical facility or hospitals under the Vinmec Health System nationwide for specialized and experienced doctors to answer in detail.
