A member asked:
How long after finishing hep c treament and remaining undetectable can you try to have a baby?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More than 6 months: Recommend waiting 6 months or longer. One it is recommended after exposure of ribavarin as part of your hcv treatment regimen. Two, viral clearance would prevent transmission to the baby if you are a female patient.
