Hello,
With the question “When is hepatitis B treatment indicated? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Indications for treatment of hepatitis B by the Ministry of Health, except for HBV - DNA, liver enzymes, HBeAg also has ultrasound to assess liver fibrosis. However, with the current information, you do not need to be treated. You should monitor your test numbers every 3 - 6 months.
If you still have questions about hepatitis B treatment, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
