Dive into episode 53 of the Sex Ed Bites podcast for a crucial discussion on Hepatitis C. We explore the story of Alex and how easy it is to contract the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) through common but risky actions. This episode highlights the global impact of Hepatitis C, including chronic cases and high-risk regions, and examines both common and less known ways the virus spreads. We discuss the symptoms of Hepatitis C in its acute and chronic stages, and the serious health risks, including liver damage and cancer, if left untreated. The episode also brings hope with insights into effective treatments like direct-acting antiviral (DAA) tablets, their usage, and minimal side effects. Key to this episode is the message of prevention, awareness, and the importance of medical consultation if at risk.
