Hepatitis B Screening & Tests
Hepatitis B is caused by a virus (HBV) that is highly infectious. Symptoms of hepatitis B can appear about one to six months after you become infected and include yellowing of your skin and eyes (jaundice), dark urine, extreme tiredness, feeling or being sick and abdominal pain. HBV can also cause a chronic liver infection that can later develop into cirrhosis of the liver or liver cancer.
Some people with hepatitis B never have any symptoms. They are known as asymptomatic carriers as they are still infectious and can unknowingly pass on the disease to others.
Most people with acute hepatitis B recover without treatment. There are a range of medicines available such as antivirals or those that help your immune system fight the disease. A vaccine is also available to prevent the disease.
