A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: sexual transmission of hepatitis c is uncommon, though never say never. An initial manifestation may result in liver inflammation but you would be jaundiced. That inflammation will resolve after a time and then go into a latent stage; at any time from the initial manifestation onward it can be detected and treated. Get liver function tests and hep c antibody, if normal/negative then no worries
