A member asked:
Can you tell me what can affect my level of antibodies for hep b?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Genetics: Our genetic make up controls our immune response and we all respond to antigens differently. If the antibody is low following vaccination, you should discuss getting an extra dose, with your doctor.
