Yes - but very unlikely
Now that your body is making antibodies against hepatitis B (Hep B or HBV) the only way for you to become seronegative is to wipe out all of those B-cells.
It can happen.
If, for instance, you were to have massive doses of chemotherapy to wipe out your white blood cells, that might make you HBV negative but then you would die from a ton of other infections.
Not much good, huh

Hello. Hepatitis B may be cleared with meds although not everyone clears unfortunately. The requirement for transplant of livers in those with HepB used to require first clearing the virus which took a lot off the list. HepB is a very dangerous type of liver disease as it is spread through the mucos membranes and other fluids making it fall into the category of an STD. Scientists are still working on better treatment for all the forms of Hepatitis and especially HepB and C. There was a thought to make clearance of both HepB and C a prerequisite to transplant. There is always hope and with life style changes anything positive is possible. Universal precautions are a good thing to know and when infected with such a nasty virus it becomes a personal responsibility to make sure no one else becomes infected from those of us who carry these pests..........to put it very mildly. If you wish info I hear the best website is the Hepatitis B site. Simple name with a focused website for those who carry and also friends and family. There is a vaccine now for HepB and everyone should be vaccinated. There is none for HepC yet and there is of course one for HepA. Good luck! Find a good gastroenterologist to help you.

Though this has been reported to happen but is very rare.
There are no medications available to convert hepatitis B positive to hepatitis negative. This does not mean that this is the end of the world. A substantial number of Hep B positive patients never develop any complications of the disease.

Hepatitis B in adults is acute in 90% cases and chronic in 10%. If acute, it subsides within a few months. If chronic, it can lead to a carrier state, chronic active hepatitis, chronic persistent hepatitis or cirrhosis of the liver. Later, it can lead to liver cancer. If chronic, it rarely becomes negative.

See Dr Whitaker's Guide to Natural Healing for a method of accomplishing this. It is a bit too involved to summarize here

not really, unless there was an error in testing. if you have HBV, you have HBV, now whether or not your a carrier or infectious is dependent of furthing testing.
good luck!
