When a person is infected with hepatitis C is there any safe method for sexual contact with them?

Hepatitis C is not transmitted through sexual contact UNLESS there is an exchange of blood. Typical sex will not spread the disease. However, if you engage in fetishes like sticking needles through your skin, that would be highly contagious if you share those needles. Hep C is spread through blood to blood transmission only. Hepatitis B , on the other hand, is highly sexually transmitted, but there is a vaccine for hep B. Source(s): Cert. HCV educator, VP of a HCV 501c3 organization, support group facilitator
only using a condom or not having sex at all
hepatitis is VERY contagious
Cyndy is right, just make sure you get vaccined for B.
Hello

Hep C is a blood borne disease, it is rarely transmitted sexually when in a monogamous relationship. The most common way to get Hep C is sharing needles, tattoos, piercings, sharing razors and using the same tooth brush. Talk to your doctor or research on the web.
