Anonymous customer question
Answer
Hello. This is the concentration of hepatitis B virus present in 01ml of blood. However, 102 is, as I understand it, 10 to 2 and this one test alone is not enough to assess the problem of hepatitis B virus.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec Health System. Best regards.

HBeAg test negative, HBV-DNA quantification 26.9 IU/ml, do I need to take Mocrea tenofovir for treatment?

Hi doctor! I found out that I have hepatitis B when I took a pregnancy test at 12 weeks. Currently, I am in the 26th week of pregnancy and tested negative for HBeAg, measuring HBV-DNA 26.9 IU/ml. So the doctor asked me if I had a negative HBeAg test, HBV-DNA quantification 26.9 IU/ml, should I take Mocrea tenofovir for treatment? Does taking the drug have any effect on the fetus? Ask your doctor for advice and answers. Thank you sincerely!
