Risk of getting hepatitis c if i have protected sex with a girl that has it.?


shouldnt do back door stuff right?
what is the %5 thing???
is cummining in her mouth ok?

The risk is very small. Hep C is spread from blood to blood contact only. The only way to contract Hep C through sex is if blood is involved. That is why they say to avoid anal sex. Because of the risk of bleeding. As always, you should use a condom if it is just a casual relationship. But, you will be fine. I have had Hep C since I was born and I have been with my husband for 6 1/2 years. He has never contracted it from me. Good luck.

While Hep C can be sexually transmitted, it usually isn't. It's a *very* small percentage who get it this way. It's much more common to get Hep **B** via sexual contact.

Use a condom. That's a must.

Anal is probably not a great idea because Hep C is bloodborne, and the anus can tear and bleed. You want to keep blood to an absolute minimum!

Ejaculating into her mouth can spread other STDs, and possibly spread herpes from her mouth to your penis if you're not careful. This is just in general, but you oughtta consider using a flavored condom for oral sex.

the 5% "thing" as you call it simply means that there is a small chance of spread hcv via sexual intercourse where the exchange of blood occurs NOT bodily fluids. the correct term is called the risk factor and it is at .05% not 5 percent.

in order for hcv to transpire, blood from the infected and an open wound in the other have to occur.

you have more a chance of acquiring hcv via household exposure which is .06%. sharing drugs, going to the dentist or having surgery of any kind prior to 1995 and blood transfusions and being a veteran of any age, serving any time/decade- these are higher probabilities!! MUCH higher!

as always there is a million ways to acquire hcv infection where blood may enter the wound of another and many are unaware of it. many are also under the impression it cannot happen to them or they are not infected because they feel fine.

ever cutyourself on paper money? hcv whether dried or wet can trasmit- even if the blood has been dry (4 days is the longest it can survive without a host).
ever picked your nose? i'm sure you have! if you had any dried blood particles lingering you could transmit the virus if you had scratched the lining of your nose.

those are probably a few less worrisome proababilities but given not all of us know for sure how we acquired it, it's possible as hcv has been around for YEAR AND YEARS- first dubbed "non-a non b hepatitis".

do not share things that may have blood on it, ie, razors or toothbrushes, there is another higher probability (under household exposure) for hcv.

as always, RESPECT yourself and wear a condom!! There are worse diseases out there, ie, HIV is top, HCV second.

GET TESTED. If your sexual experience happened recently, you need to test to rule out the infection from that experience as HCV is typically noted as taking an average of 50 days post exposure for the test to be responsive.

over 5 million in the United States have hcv infection and half do not know they have it!

Good luck!
