A member asked:
Can hepatitis type-c be sexually transmitted while menstruating?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Uncommonly, but yes: Any blood borne disease can be spread more easily during menstruation and blood exposure. Hep c can be spread sexually, but more commonly by direct inoculation, e.g. Iv or nasal drug use, tainted transfusion, or tattoo, etc.
