Is it true that hepatitis B can be cured without treatment? What should we pay attention to when we have hepatitis B?

A netizen consulted, he said: My hepatitis B went from small triple positive in the early 2000s to big triple positive, I have been taking medicine, but it didn't work for a year, so I didn't go for treatment, and I didn't care about it. It has been seven or eight years now and I haven't been checked, and I don't have any symptoms. I am afraid to go for a checkup, afraid that it will get worse. I heard many people say that it will heal itself without treatment. Is this really the case? What should I pay attention to after being infected with the hepatitis B virus? How should I recheck? Let me answer some questions about hepatitis B.

1. Hepatitis B turns negative naturally. Some people infected with hepatitis B virus did not take any treatment measures after discovering that they were infected with hepatitis B virus. When they went for a check-up many years later, they found that the hepatitis B virus antigen had turned negative and the antibody had turned positive!

Do you find it unbelievable? Or magical?

Yes, hepatitis B can undergo antigenic conversion without treatment and achieve self-healing! Medically, this is called natural negative conversion, and its incidence rate is 1%-2% per year.

Do you think people who achieve natural negative conversion are lucky? Yes, they are indeed lucky!

The natural conversion of hepatitis B to negative is mainly related to three factors: one is the route of infection. Hepatitis B can be transmitted from mother to child, through blood and sexual transmission. It is more difficult to achieve self-healing due to infection through mother-to-child transmission; the second is the body's immune status. Better immune function is more conducive to the body's elimination of the hepatitis B virus; the third is the age at the time of infection. The younger the age at the time of infection, the more difficult it is to clear it naturally, and the older the age, the easier it is to clear it naturally.

2. Precautions after being infected with hepatitis B virus. Hepatitis B is a chronic disease, and its occurrence and development are related to many aspects of our daily life.

First of all, we must attach importance to physical examinations, which can detect changes in the condition in time and provide treatment as early as possible. It is recommended to check liver function every three months, abdominal ultrasound and hepatitis B six items every six months, and hepatitis B virus DNA and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) every year.

Second, you need to develop a good lifestyle. You must absolutely quit smoking and drinking, avoid staying up late, eat a light diet, and do moderate exercise every day.

Third, we must have a good attitude towards this disease. Currently, there is no drug or method that can completely cure hepatitis B. Infection means that you may carry it for life, so we must accept it. A good attitude is good for physical health and also good for the treatment of the disease.

Fourth, remember not to blindly use online searches to find answers. Be sure to go to the hospital to consult a professional doctor and listen to the opinions and suggestions of professionals.

Fifth, when the treatment requirements are met, once antiviral treatment begins, you must be prepared for long-term treatment and remember not to stop the medication without permission.

Summary: There are about 90 million people infected with hepatitis B virus in my country, and about 25 million people with hepatitis B virus, so we must look at the infection of hepatitis B virus correctly. At work and in life, I have met many people who have a bad mentality after being infected with hepatitis B virus. They give up on themselves, which accelerates the development of hepatitis B to cirrhosis and liver cancer. It is really a pity. I hope everyone will take care of their bodies. The body will always be the capital of revolution. Making money is just a game, and living is the purpose.
