Hepatitis B ( HBV ) (Page 1)

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a virus that is transmitted into a person through direct contact with blood, unprotected sex, contaminated needles, or from a mother to her newborn baby. This condition is said to not show symptoms at the beginning which is why it is called ‘silent epidemic’. This infection can be chronic or acute. People infected chronically do not have any manifestations and therefore, their liver gets damaged silently without any notice, hence, leading to liver cancer.

But, the best part of this disease is, that it can be treated and prevented with the use of hepatitis B medications and other vaccinations that help preclude this virus.

If the chronic infection is not cured or treated by medications, permanent liver damage then undergoing a liver transplant is the only long-term treatment for survival.

Other most common kinds of hepatitis are hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. HBV is the kind that is believed to be spread mostly through unprotected sex.
