Is Hep C present in sperm?
Big chance to contact ?

Hep C has been found in sperm, but seems to not be passed sexually except in HIV+men who have sex with men.

Absolutely no risk of hep C in baby production if male is hep C+; If mother is hep C+, the risk is 6%; if she is also HIV+, the risk is 30%
