Test Necessity
Doctors will recommend the HBsAg test if you -
- Have had unprotected sex with someone who is infected with hepatitis B virus
- Have shared needles with an infected person
- Are a man who engages in sexual activity with other men without protection
- Work in the healthcare industry and are exposed to people’s blood
- Are a baby born to a mother who tested positive for hepatitis B

Acute hepatitis doesn't always show symptoms. However, there are some signs of Hepatitis B infection that make doctors order the HBsAg test:

- Yellowing of the skin due to liver problems
The symptoms show up anytime between 2 weeks to 4 months after the exposure.

No special preparation is required for the HBsAg test. If the doctor has recommended other tests which might require fasting, you will be informed.

Test Result Interpretation
While the blood culture does examine HBsAg, the readings can only be comprehended when the complete Hepatitis B test panel has been taken into consideration.
Unlike many other tests, the HBsAg screening test does not contain values and ranges. Instead, it only indicates whether the individual is positive or negative on the parameters examined. The HBsAg test by ELISA or CLIA method gives a quantitative value of the HBsAg. The permutation of positives and negatives on the three readings leads to certain conclusions. However, since it is rather complex, the HBsAg test report is best studied by a doctor.
