Hi,

I heard that some Hepatitis takes only 2 months to know on the blood test, but some types can take as long as 6 months.

Also, I heard that many clinics do not offer blood testing for Hepatitis. Then, how would we know we might have it, if we can't test for it??? thanks.

call planned parenthood and get a referral. Thats what I did.

The incubation period for different types varies. Two months post (possible) exposure might give you some insight. Id test again at three months just to be sure.
