Can HbsAb increase during the CHB?

Just diagnosed or new to the community
1

Hello everyone,
I am new in this community, and am very hopeful to find a peace here, because of understanding, people, experts and good people.
I am 31, and recently diagnosed with HbsAg Reactive, I accidentally found it during a checkup for my dreamjob.
I want to know that, could anyone get hbsAb increase through CHB? And could it help to cure? Or would it remain constant as it is?
Thank you for everything.

Dear @IWillBeCured,

Thanks for your question. People can become HBsAb-positive (or HBsAg-negative) during a chronic infection, but it is rare (about 1-2% of people per year).

Not so rare! :blush: (unless Iā€™m misreading the Ag/Ab typo!)
