I tested positive for the HBV.

No symptoms, further test says my liver and kidney are still healthy.

I'm taking medications.

Don't even know how I got that shịt. I'm not sexually active.
HBV don't affect kidney rather liver.

you could get it from childhood. most people with hbv are those who get its from child hood as the virus refuses to clear as a result of weak immune system in children.
adults will clear the virus 95% to 99% of the time they get it and go further to developing naturally immune system.

hbv is of two stages - active and inactive and to know which one u got.. 'go for hbv profile test.. if you are able to clear the HBeAg or it shows negative then you are innactive.

it mean that the virus is not multiplying or affecting u. and as such you won't or might not be needing any drugs. but must stay away from alcohol, meat and oily food. the good news is that 80 to 90 % of hbv patients are always like this and they won't be sick. that's why the government has made it compulsory for all children to be vaccinated I think Nigeria started vaccination for children in 2004 while USA started 1990

in addition you should go for yearly checkup like liver scan n LFT test to know how ur liver is.

Note : 90% of Nigerian doctors don't fully understand what hbv is all about. even the said gastroenterologist only a few actually understands it. as they might scare the shit out of u.


Apart from this you will leave a normal life unless other things kill u.

hbv kills when you fail to detect it on time, that's why everyone should go for testing. detect it and if you need medication to suppress it. you start taking it.


it takes herpetites b 20 to 30 years to destroy the liver and if you have it you don't know and you still go ahead to take alcohol then that follow can die within 10 to 15 years.
note that herpetites does not kill rather it affects the liver and causes fibrosis and cirrhosis. while fibrosis if detected could be reverse the said can't be said of cirrhosis and it takes 20 years of active high level load of hbv to get cirrhosis.


There are trial drugs on going and in 2 years time it will be in mrkt there is a drug that is known to cure the virus but they are recording 35 to 40% success rate and those who are likely to benefit are those with lower load.


but other trail drugs are on the way... in next 10 years are so maybe a cure to get everyone free will be found just as the case of herpetites c which now has a cure

note: no herbal drugs can cure it.... don't drink any herb as it could complicate things or affects the kidney.

Simply advise them to stop sleeping around and stop cutting corners.
Contacting hepatitis b is more than sleeping around. You can easily contact hepatitis b by sweat and saliva.

So sleeping around is what causes hepatitis? So much for your orientation on the subject matter. Do proper research on how that thing spread and save those around you from contacting it without knowing believing you that it all comes with sleeping around.

If a person, who tested negative for hepatitis B, gets vaccinated, will he later test positive as a result of the hepatitis B vaccine?

50% don’t know their status yet you say 10% of the population has hepatitis?

What stupid kind of statistics is this?

These guys don’t know the implication of rubbish like this. They’ll ban Nigerians from multiple countries for this unscientific statement. Even hiv that is well tested in nigeria is just 1.4% or less than 2million
some know about hepatitis but dey don't know their status. Simple

Anyways herpititis isn't only transmitted through sex.

Physical contact through sweat

Alcohol binging

So even if you refuse to have sex Herpes can get anyone unvaccinated
