Hello doctor! I have hepatitis B, HBsAg test result is positive 4441(<1.0), anti-HBs <2.00 negative (<10), Roche positive (>10), HBeAg negative. HBV in serum is 142 IU/mL equivalent to 1.42 times 10^2 IU/ml). The threshold for detectable viral load in serum is 15 IU/mL. Doctor, let me ask you with the above results, what stage is hepatitis B? HBeAg negative can cure hepatitis B? I hope the doctor can answer and advise me. Thank you doctor.

Hello! If HBsAg is positive for 6 months, then chronic hepatitis B is diagnosed. If hepatitis B is acute, there is usually only supportive treatment and most will resolve on its own. If hepatitis B is chronic, treatment depends on liver enzyme tests, viral load counting and liver status as well as family factors with liver K.
Therefore, to be able to conclude that HBeAg-negative is capable of curing hepatitis B, you should go to a doctor and consult a doctor at a reputable medical facility or specializing in Hepatitis Infectious Diseases. Hospitals under Vinmec Health System nationwide.
