Question: Hi Doctor ,

6 weeks before i went to CSW and sucked her breast, and i remember i swallowed something. and then she masturbated me by hand. Will this cause HEP C and HEP B?



i have done the attached report test at my 47th day. Its conclusive? am i free for HEP B and HEP C ? or do i need any more test later?


Please help me , i am worrying a lot

Brief Answer:
Apparently clear

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for writing in

The mode of transmission of Hep C and Hep B is not by hand

A safe medical advice is do not go for unprotected sex

Your reports are apparently normal

If you are worried get a repeat test after 6 months as the incubation period of Hep B virus is up to six months and that Of Hep C up to 3 months

Hope this clears your anxiety
Do write back in case of concern

Thanks for your reply doctor, Sucking breast and swallowing something will cause HEP B or HEP C?

Why i need to repeat the test again after 6 months , Still i have done PCR detection test at my 47th day, Will that be not enough?

Is there a chance for virus multiplying will take time in blood stream?

Because i am refusing my wife to have any relationships with me. So kindly explain me bit detail to understand.

Brief Answer:
Because of the latent incubation

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for your followup

Hepatitis B and C mothers are allowed to breast feed their children even though Hep C virus have been found in breast milk not a single case of transmission is noted

I have recommended the test on a safer side for your worry as both viruses have latent incubation period as mentioned in my previous reply

Basically you need not worry and lead a safe healthy life

Hope this clears your doubts
Wishing you a healthy life ahead

Thanks doctor, But in which case late incubation will occur? Do i really need test? or shall i move on with my life?

CDC they have mentioned for 3 months for HEP B and HEP C. "The window period for Hepatitis is technically 3 months but can be picked up as early as 1 month."

6 months i don't need to have any martial life with my wife? Suggest me one final solution for my situation.
