Currently there is only one approved treatment for hepatitis B called interferon alpha 2-b. About 15-20 percent of those treated will have a lasting response. Many other medications and types of therapy are being tested to find more effective and less toxic treatments.

He can get healed, but it will take time. As for getting pregnant, he should meet with his doctor to ask about that. This may not be wise until after he has cleared or gotten rid of the infection. He needs to get himself better first. Medication can treat the disease, but if you get pregnant, and he passed it on to you, you do run the risk of passing it on to your unborn child. Babies are a very high risk for carrying the disease for their entire lives. Read the link below to investigate further.

Hepatitis has nothing to do with fertilty. It messes up your liver. I think you can still get pregnant. You are at risk of contracting the disease yourself, though.

It will stay in your body forever. If it is not active, it wil be dormat. You can never donate blood.
My husband had Hepatitis B and I had five children with no problem.

he must never drink...this will cause the dammage to grow faster he needs to go to the dr every 6 months and have the virus levels and damage levels checked ...when the levels get too bad they will start medication there are 2 effective types of treatments but when your body gets immune to the treatments he will pass away...you must start living a healthy life style now
