Do I am free from hcv infection , acute or any other type as per test report.

Sir I have done HCV antibody screening test last week , after 8-9 months of unprotected oral sex (only possible exposure doubt) , as there is no such other activity where blood to blood contect occurs , only protected vaginal sex with multiple sex partner was done .
The report after 8-9 months of last encounter HCV status is non- reactive .
No sexual homo- or hetro- in last 8 months.

You reported your test result as "HCV status is non- reactive" In my opinion as a non medical person would be that you are negative for the antibodies to the hep c virus which would indicate you do not have hep c.

Just to add we here are not medical professionals. We are a community of patients who come together for mutual support in living with and treating hep c. we cannot diagnose anyone's medical condition. For your best resource for medical advice you should always consult with your doctor to interpret any medical test result.

Also hep c is a blood borne virus it requires blood to blood contact for transmission. Without a blood to blood contact there would be very low risk of transmission.

My advice is if you want an expert opinion you should ask your doctor.
