Hepatitis B is a viral infection that affects the liver. It spreads through blood and other body fluids, and can lead to chronic liver disease, cirrhosis, or liver cancer if left untreated. The HBsAg (Hepatitis B surface antigen) test detects the presence of the virus in your blood. At Subhadra Hospital, we offer accurate testing and personalized treatment for patients who test positive, with a focus on long-term liver health.
Hepatitis B can spread through:
Unprotected sexual contact
Sharing of needles or syringes
Blood transfusions (rare due to modern screening)
Blood transfusions (rare due to modern screening)
From mother to baby during childbirth
