Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist.
I can understand your concerns.
Presently there is no need for any treatment since the virus is in inactive stage.
Present medicines available for the treatment of HBV do not lead to negativity of HbsAg what they do is they suppress the viral replication and keep HBVDNA to low level only.
I hope I have answered your query and this will help you . Wish you a good health
