anyone who may know
please if you know tell me. is it possible to get Hepatits C from a minute or two of unprotected sex with a man who was not bleeding and did not have visible sores and he did not ejaculate?
I think you are wrong about hepc being more contageous than HIV. Hepc is transmittled from blood to blood contact. The percentage of contracting hepc sexually is minimal at best, however, HIV can and is more easily transmitted sexually. Do some research and you will find this to be true. I am not minimizing the seriousness of HCV, but it is not considered an STD like HIV is.
You do not have to keep opening new threads with the same questions! You have received several answers on your first post. The answer is with the exposure you describe you have NOTHING to worry about with HEP C ! There are people here that really need help so please go live your life and forget about hep c.
Hepatitis C is a very contageous diseases, even more contageous than HIV! Very dangerous and should be taken very seriously!
There is evidence that Hep C can be transmitted by anal sex. I've never seen any evidence for transmission via either vaginal or oral sex.
