Question
Hello, I had a normal physical examination in September last year. Recently, I was hospitalized for an ectopic pregnancy and surgery. I was discharged today, and I had a blood test this morning. The results came out at noon, and the doctor told me I had hepatitis C. What should I do? I’m worried that my condition might transmit to my child, although I haven’t been in contact with my child for seven months, I’m still worried that I might have already transmitted it. I need help urgently! Thank you.
Answer
Hello, the infectivity of hepatitis C is quite strong as well. How high is the viral load of hepatitis C in your body? How old is your child? If the viral load is high and your child is young, the infectivity will be stronger, so you need to be extra careful. It is recommended that you cooperate with your doctor for treatment and pay attention to personal hygiene to reduce the risk of transmission. At the same time, parents should avoid letting their children develop picky eating habits and maintain good eating habits to promote healthy growth in children.
