Hepatitis C in Women

Hepatitis C in women produces different effects from those in men.

The liver is a vital organ in your body. It regulates hormonal functions and, therefore, women experience
different effects from hepatitis C.

Women with hepatitis C could experience more problems if they already have liver problems due to other
factors.

Women with hepatitis C may be helped by diverting their attention to creative pursuits. Engaging in
hobbies and other activities can reduce the mental stress of hepatitis C.

Acquisition of HCV

Women stand a greater risk of acquiring HCV due to infection from an HCV partner or other forms of
transmission like shared needles for intravenous drugs or other forms of drug use.

Consumption of alcohol by women can have more negative effects when associated with hepatitis C than
that among men.

Menstruation

Hepatitis C symptoms are responsible for menstrual irregularities like missed periods, shorter periods and
other changes in menstrual cycles.

Having sexual relations during menstrual periods can cause transmission of hepatitis C, if their partner has
any open wounds, cuts or abrasions.

Simple preventive measures like:
    • Hygienic disposal of sanitary pads
    • Use of condoms
    • Use of dental dams for oral sex, and
    • Refraining from sex during menstrual periods
…. can prevent transmission of hepatitis C.

Similarly, menopause problems and hormone-replacement therapy for any menopause problems require
close monitoring with your doctor or an endocrinologist.

Pregnancy

Women with hepatitis C may not experience any serious problems or enhanced liver problems due to
hepatitis C.

Women with hepatitis C may have successful pregnancies.

Transmission chances may be very low.

But the possibility is higher in women with high levels of hepatitis C. As babies inherit their mother’s
antibodies, hepatitis C antibodies could be present in the baby for around fifteen months.

Thereafter, these antibodies will possibly disappear.

Women with hepatitis C can breast feed their babies safely. Although hepatitis C could be present in
breast milk, it may be at levels insufficient for transmission.

However, if you have cracked nipples or cuts, it can cause hepatitis C infection. Infection rates are high if
mother is both HCV-carrier and HIV-positive.

Contraception Methods

Oral contraceptives contain high levels of estrogen, which could be beyond tolerable levels for women
with hepatitis C.

The liver is the main organ for break-up of hormones and a damaged liver cannot produce a smooth
breakdown.

Even other contraceptive techniques like hormone injections and implants could cause serious problems.  
It is best to seek the advice of your doctor before you start with any specific technique.

However, you should ensure you do not become pregnant while undergoing hepatitis C treatment.
Medications like ribavirin and interferon can cause serious birth defects. During treatment, you and your
partner should use different contraceptive forms to prevent any possibility of pregnancy.
The above is an extract from the book "Your Complete Guide to Hepatitis C".
