Patient's question:
I am 38 years old. Recently, I feel that my liver is very tired. I haven't had a good appetite, and at night, I always feel a sharp pain in my stomach. I went to a nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it was liver disease. They advised me to get an injection. Can hepatitis be transmitted through sexual contact?Doctor's answer:
Hepatitis has one aspect, which is viral hepatitis. Both hepatitis B and hepatitis C are spread through sexual contact. Generally, the likelihood of transmission through sexual contact with pathogens or direct blood contact is relatively high. In addition, it can be spread from mother to child through the placenta. During childbirth, if the mother gives birth vaginally, the possibility of transmission through the birth canal's rusted wound entering the child's body also exists.
