Hepatitis B is not a genetic disease, so it will not be passed on to the next generation. However, if the mother is a hepatitis B carrier, and there is no timely mother-to-child hepatitis B block, it may be transmitted to the next generation. Hepatitis B carriers usually need to go to the liver department of the hospital regularly for liver function, hepatitis B virus DNA and other tests.
