All tests bought are intended solely for the person purchasing. Why?

  • You want to see if you have been exposed to HCV
Hepatitis C (HCV) is a virus that can infect and severely damage the liver. The virus can be transmitted through unprotected sex, sharing needles and can also be passed from a mother to her unborn baby. Hepatitis C antibodies are produced by the body in response to exposure to HCV.

The detection of antibodies in the blood indicates a previous HCV infection, even if it was so mild you did not realise you had it. This test alone cannot confirm that you still have an active viral infection, only that you were exposed to the virus in the past. Following a positive result further testing is usually recommended to investigate the result further.
