Preferably not, wait till the acute phase is over and then you can decide. Vaccination is for accidental exposure and may fail if the sharing viral load is high. All the best.

Hello- No you can't do unsafe sex with her. The Hepatitis B vaccine is very effective at preventing Hepatitis B virus infection. After receiving all three doses, Hepatitis B vaccine provides greater than 90% protection to infants, children, and adults immunized before being exposed to the virus, but still you can infect your partner with it.
