Hello,
Can you help me?
as far as you know...what are the changes of getting hep A, B or C from my exposure: I am a male that had protected vaginal intercourse but with consistent menstrual bleeding from the woman and receiving unprotected oral sex.

Are you sure she has hepatitis? Which? B or C?

The two activities are very safe sexual practices unless you had cuts on your penis and her blood was somehow on your penis. The odds of getting exposed to hepatitis are minimal to none. More likely you would get another STD like herpes then hepatitis. You would probably be better off learning about STDs and what your risks are, then worrying about any form of hepatitis.

Hepatitis A the odds of transmittal are 0. It is transmitted though fecal matter. There are no long terms effects on your health anyway.
Hepatitis B is about 30% of the time transmitted sexually. It is a STD.
Hepatitis C is a blood to blood disease. So unless her blood went into your veins directly...
The odds are extremely low.

Get immunized for both hep A and B and you will never have to worry about them again.

You need to have a blood test done to make sure the Virus was not passed to you. Better too know early so treatment can begin if you do end up positive.

Hep C is not related to A or B.  People like you confuse them because of the word Hepatitis which means literally "inflamed liver".
