Hello,
With the question “When should hepatitis B be treated? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
If you test for HBsAg (+), your body is infected with hepatitis B virus. Blood chemistry test shows that your liver enzymes are normal. You need to monitor and check periodically every 3-6 months about the status of liver enzymes. If there are abnormalities, you should see a hepatologist to evaluate you.
If you still have questions about hepatitis B, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further testing and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
