Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I read and understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor answering your concern. No, in my advice you should not get married. If you marry than forget about the sex with your partner. Because sex will transmit the infection to the partner. In my opinion you are a carrier for the hepatitis B. Carrier status can be known after the detail blood investigation. I suggest you to check for the Bag, anti he, anti Bag, he and anti HBC. This all will give you a status of your present infection with the hepatitis B. Carrier state do not have any symptoms but can be able to transmits the infection to others. So avoiding sex and blood transfusion of your blood to others can prevent the infections. I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/ Chat Doctor.
