WHat are the chances I have any form of hepatitis from this exposure
I met a guy about 2 months ago.
We kissed for a bit, but i didnt enjoy it after about 5 kisses so i stopped.
He gave me unprotected oral sex for about a minute and he gavr me anal sex with a condom (protected) everytime
Also he fingered me in the anus for around 2 minutes, doubt he had any semen on his fingers as it was at the start
My questions are
1) What are my chances of picking up any form of hepatitis from this exposure?
2) If the condom had a little tear in it, what are my chances of getting hepatitis?
PLEASE HELP!

If would clear the virus, you would always have antibodies in your blood. The same as if you had a Hep B shot. Nobody would know the difference, if it would have been from a past and resolved exposure or the vaccination.
If my body did fight off the virus, would it ever show up on a blood test say like in a years time?
If i have hep B then i cant become a doctor :(

Most on the hepc forum do not have hepb and therefore you should ask over there where they will know more than over here.
If you are this concerned get tested it's just a quick blood test and then a couple day wait. You could already almost be part of the way to finding out if you called the doctors office.

I don't know, but you really need to calm down. Get yourself tested, the results come back quite fast.
As an adult, if you were infected, there would only be 6-10% chance that you would end up with the virus.
So IF you were infected, there would be a 90-94% chance that your body would fight off the virus by itself.

It is unlikely that you got hep B from this encounter. Get yourself tested. And then get the A&B vaccines Twinrix, it's a good thing to have.
I am wanting to become a doctor and i cannot get on if i have hep B
if i did have hep B, could my own immune system get rid of it so it is no longer in the body (say on a blood test) or are there any drugs which a can take to get rid of it or will it always be with me?

very little chance of contracting HCV from this exposure but definately other types of hepatitis & STD's.
Hepatitis B is much more contagious than HIV by about 100 times. You need to be tested for HBV and HIV. Hepatitis C is the only one that is transmitted just through blood. HIV and HBV are found in sexual body fluids as well as saliva.
If you are going to continue to have casual sex you need to be vaccinated for hepatitis A and B.

highly unlikely
if the condom was torn and he ejaculated in to you then you would be more at risk of HIV not hep A, B or C
does that help

“Hepatitis A is an acute liver disease caused by the hepatitis A virus (HAV), lasting from a few weeks to several months. It does not lead to chronic infection.
Transmission: Ingestion of fecal matter, even in microscopic amounts, from close person-to-person contact or ingestion of contaminated food or drinks.
Vaccination: Hepatitis A vaccination is recommended for all children starting at age 1 year, travelers to certain countries, and others at risk.”

“Hepatitis B is a liver disease caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). It ranges in severity from a mild illness, lasting a few weeks (acute), to a serious long-term (chronic) illness that can lead to liver disease or liver cancer.
Transmission: Contact with infectious blood, semen, and other body fluids from having sex with an infected person, sharing contaminated needles to inject drugs, or from an infected mother to her newborn.
Vaccination: Hepatitis B vaccination is recommended for all infants, older children and adolescents who were not vaccinated previously, and adults at risk for HBV infection.”

Sorry, I don't have any information on Hep A or Hep B, but it is simple enough to be tested, if you have reason to believe your partner is infected. Good luck.
thank you
