Patient's question:
Main symptoms: NoneOnset time: Found out when filling out the initial health record
Laboratory test results: Hepatitis C
Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis C, like hepatitis B, is transmitted through blood and can be spread vertically from mother to child. Vertical transmission can be divided into prenatal transmission, perinatal transmission, and postnatal transmission. Among these, perinatal transmission is the most severe. During childbirth, the fetus can be exposed to hepatitis C through swallowing maternal blood, amniotic fluid, vaginal secretions, etc., while cesarean delivery can prevent perinatal transmission.
