&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Hepatitis C is a treatable and curable infection, but without treatment, it often becomes lifelong for most individuals. Effective treatments are available to eliminate hepatitis C, and starting treatment early is crucial to prevent severe issues such as liver damage, liver cancer, and death. If diagnosed with hepatitis C, it is important to consult your doctor promptly to begin treatment without delay. Additionally, discovering ways to protect your liver and prevent spreading hepatitis C to others is essential.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Getting Hepatitis C Treatment in Thailand&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;You&#39;ll need to get tested for hepatitis C first before starting the treatment. If you&amp;rsquo;ve already had these lab investigations done from somewhere else contact us about your test results and bring them with you on the day of your doctor&amp;rsquo;s visit.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Our doctor can prescribe medication based on both international and Thai National Guidelines for HCV treatment. The duration of treatment varies depending on the genotype; sometimes, we have medications that cover all genotypes but require advance ordering.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;During the initial year, follow up for HCV viral load and liver function tests every six months. After that, you can schedule follow-up visits once a year to ensure there&amp;rsquo;s no re-infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;After curing Hep C, your body will continue making antibodies for ten years or more. These antibodies protect against infections. Having Hep C antibodies doesn&amp;rsquo;t mean you still have the virus. A negative PCR test 3 months after treatment means the virus is gone. Remember, antibodies don&amp;rsquo;t protect against reinfection. Avoid blood-to-blood contact (including sharing injecting equipment) to prevent reinfection. Most people feel better during Hep C treatment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Treatment for Hepatitis C&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;There have been new advances in treatment&amp;nbsp;for hepatitis C, including highly effective&amp;nbsp;medications that show&amp;nbsp;the majority of people&amp;nbsp;can be cured. Treatment is also easier than in&amp;nbsp;the past because it usually involves&amp;nbsp;pills only&amp;nbsp;(no injections), there are fewer side effects, and&amp;nbsp;treatment typically takes only 8-12 weeks.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The latest hepatitis C treatment involves only pills, offering shorter durations, fewer side effects, and high success rates.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;The latest medications for treating hepatitis C have significantly fewer side effects and are generally well-tolerated. Common side effects like fatigue, headache, insomnia, and nausea are rare and usually mild. It&amp;rsquo;s crucial to be aware of potential side effects and inform your doctor if they occur. Healthcare providers can assist in minimizing and managing any side effects you may experience.&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The current treatment is one of the most effective way to deal with hepatitis C, but there are few notes you should know before starting the treatment:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class=&quot;ul1&quot;&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Treatment can cure hepatitis C, meaning the virus is no longer present in your body. After treatment, you can no longer pass the virus on, but it&amp;rsquo;s important to prevent re-infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Take all pills on schedule for the best results. Skipping or missing pills may prevent cure. Plan how you&amp;rsquo;ll adhere to your medications before treatment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;HIV-positive people who treat hepatitis C may improve their overall health, make their HIV medications more effective, and increase HIV treatment options.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Some people may be initially denied treatment due to drug or alcohol use or liver damage. If your insurance company denies you treatment, you have the right to appeal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Effective is This Hepatitis C Treatment?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Hepatitis C treatment is highly effective, with cure rates exceeding 95% for most patients who use oral &lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;direct-acting antiviral&lt;/span&gt; (DAA) medications.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;A sustained viral response at week 12 after treatment indicates a cure. Your doctor will order a PCR viral load test 12 weeks after treatment ends.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If the results show &amp;lsquo;virus undetectable&amp;rsquo; (no virus), it means you&amp;rsquo;ve successfully cleared the virus and there&amp;rsquo;s no hepatitis C in your body. Some doctors may order a further PCR viral load test 24 weeks after treatment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is Hepatitis C&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Hepatitis C is a viral infection that causes liver inflammation and damage. The virus spreads through blood contact.&amp;nbsp;Many people are not aware of their infection due to delayed symptoms, which can take decades to manifest. We recommend that you get a screening for hepatitis C regardless of symptoms or liver disease, especially:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Anyone who has injected, snorted, or inhaled an illegal drug.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Anyone who has atypical liver test results whose cause remains unknown.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Sexual partners of anyone diagnosed with hepatitis C infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;People with HIV infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Men who engage in sexual activity with men.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Sexually active people about to commence taking medication to prevent HIV, known as pre-exposure prophylaxis or PrEP.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Newer antiviral medicines are the treatment of choice for most people with chronic hepatitis C, often leading to cure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Symptoms of Hepatitis C&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Acute hepatitis C, often asymptomatic, can progress to chronic hepatitis C, which may cause symptoms like fatigue, jaundice, and bleeding. Some individuals spontaneously clear the infection, while others require antiviral therapy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Can You Avoid Hepatitis C&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Preventing hepatitis C infection can be achieved through various measures.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Stopping illegal drug use&lt;/strong&gt;: If you are an illegal drug user, seeking help is crucial.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Being cautious about body piercing and tattooing&lt;/strong&gt;: When getting pierced or tattooed, ensure you visit a reputable shop known for cleanliness. Ask questions about the equipment cleaning process and verify that sterile needles are used. If the staff is unwilling to provide information, consider seeking services elsewhere.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Practicing safer sex&lt;/strong&gt;: Avoid unprotected sex with partners whose health status is unknown. Additionally, limiting sexual partners to one or two reduces the risk of contracting hepatitis C through sexual contact. It&amp;rsquo;s important to note that the risk of couples engaging in exclusive sexual activity contracting hepatitis C is relatively low.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
