It looks like it could happen (slight chance) because the CDC advises couples not to share toothbrushes. Hepatitis C is transmitted primarily by exposure to blood infected with the hepatitis C virus. Transmission rarely occurs from exposure to other infected body fluids, such as semen.
If you're in a long-term, monogamous relationship with a partner who has hepatitis C, your risk of sexual transmission is 0 percent to 0.6 percent per year. For monogamous couples, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) doesn't recommend routine condom use to prevent transmission. But couples should avoid sharing razors, toothbrushes and nail clippers.
