Overview
Highly contagious, hepatitis B usually spreads due to the exchange of blood, semen, and other bodily fluids. If the doctor observes symptoms, like appetite loss, abdominal pain, skin discolouration, and fatigue, they will prescribe this test. While this test can be done separately, the HBsAg test is usually a part of the hepatitis B panel test, which includes tests like HBcAb, HBsAb, and IgM.
