throw sex?

i had a std test including hepitits c test before and during my pregnacy. and i dated a guy before i had my baby. and i was dating him after but he sleep with a girl in between . and now my test are coming back with hepititis (hepatitis) c and he was the only one ive been around other than my mom sence my daughter was born and i had sex with him 1 time and there was no blood from eather of us. my question is can you get hepititis (hepatitis) c from sex even with no blood. because thats what my doctor told me but everything ive read sayed that thats not posible inless there was blood from both of us. and like i sayed he was the only one i have been with or seen sence my daughter was born. is it possible?

It’s very unlikely that you contracted this via intercourse; HCV isn’t considered a classic STD. There are always exceptions to any rule; when HCV *is* transmitted through sex, it’s usually rough sex that involves trauma, or possibly anal sex where tissue tearing is more likely.

There seems to be a group of patients that just can’t explain where it came from; they don’t have any known risk factors, but still get the disease from something. Who knows? The important thing now is to manage the disease; have you considered treatment yet? Are you watching for disease progression with your doctor?

Good luck to you-

first off, what the heck is throw sex???

anyway,  hcv transmission thru sex is highly unlikely (imo) unless rough (throw?) sex where there is blood exchanged....
but, I think there is a slight chance it could happen if both parties involved had a sore down under.  

just my  take.

and ps - I regret answering yes to the iv drug question...  just say no, or its none of your business, if thats the case.   Cause the fact is , you really do not know where this came from.  could have been a blood draw with improper use of equipment, etc.  I saw and caught a lot of screw ups when I treated.  Watch everything, question everything, post questions and let forum people know even the smallest details if you tx.  They can help you.

Are you sure that they tested for Hep C specifically.  My ob/gyn told me that C is not routinely tested for when you are pregnant, but Hep B is.

I could be wrong but ya might want to double check.

I would be interested in knowing that too.  Always good to keep up with the lastest techniques.

throw sex = through sex

[Trinity4]

Oh geez, I'm disappointed.  I thought I might get a refresher course.  LOL

I'm getting too old for throw sex anyway. ;)

sounds strenuous, possibly painful too

No, I think it's "throw sex" but don't believe it's for married people.

[jmjm530]

Come to think of it, the bed I'm building may make throw sex somewhat dangerous.

I wish somebody would throw some sex my way :(

sex...someones talking about sex in here??  Must be in the wrong forum...but talk amonst yourselves I'm all veclempt.

there is such a thing as a false positive. You should get tested again to rule out lab error before letting panic set in.

ps a guy bouncing around from chick to chick cannot always be believed as to the "only one other" line. If you get another test positive for antibodies and RNA...then get him tested....
if he has the same genotype as you...and you KNOW you haven't been elsewhwere, then that's where you got it.

sorry to hear your troubles, forgive us for the sex jokes, but it's ususally not very snappy in here so we tend to jump at the mention of someone getting any!!  : )

Throw Sex- Calling your wife using her sister’s name and trying to hold for 8 seconds.
