Hello,
You may marry, but be sure that your spouse immunized against the hepatitis B virus (HBV) before having sexual relations. HBV cannot be treated completely, but complications and transmission prevented. Liver enzymes and viral DNA examined regularly. Secondly, avoid sexual relationships if HBsAg and HBeAg are high in your blood or high viral DNA copies.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Tayyab Malik
