Hi and thanks for posting.
Hepatitis means inflammation of the liver. there are several possible causes among them viruses.
These results show that you have hepatitis B infection which is active as the antigene is positive, The presence of IgG signals that this has been going on for sometime.
Hepatitis B is mainly contracted through blood contamination, blood transfusion and sexual intercourse. You may want to look back and figure out which means may have been responsible.
There are various treatment options for this. Talk to you doctor and he will do some more test, determine whether it is chronic or not and whether to treat and if so, when.
9/10 persons who get contaminated never need any special attention for the system to clear the infection and provide a long lasting protection. You could be one of them.
When it becomes chronic, then we need to get medications for treatment.
Hope this helps and provides ample information for you to act on. feel free to ask us more questions. I wish you well.
