 There is really no data on lesbian sexual transmission of hepatitis C. It is not a real sexually transmitted disease even in heterosexuals. The most important thing to avoid is blood. So don't share razors or toothbrushes and don't have sex during menses and if you are using any devices that may have blood on them, don't exchange them. Other than that, I would not worry much about it. Good luck and have fun! DTD | ||||||||
