A member asked:
I took and hbsag hepatitis b test after 6 weeks exposure . is this accurate ? or should i test again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Test again: Hep B can have a long incubation period. It would be prudent to get tested for Hbsag and Hep B core antibody at 6-9 months after potential exposure. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!
