Is chlamydia only transmitted sexually?

Question

I want to know more about the bacteria that causes chlamydia.

Answer 1

Chlamydia is mainly passed through sexual activity:
* vaginal or anal sex with an infected partner
* oral sex, although this is less common
* sharing sex toys
* touching parts of the body with fingers (for example, chlamydia often occurs in the eyes)

You can NOT catch chlamydia from simple kissing, sharing baths, towels, cups, or from toilet seats.

Answer 4

Sexually active women and men can get chlamydia through sexual contact with an infected person. Chlamydia can be passed during vaginal, anal, or oral sex. Because there are often no symptoms, people who are infected may unknowingly pass chlamydia to their sex partners.

An infected mother can also pass chlamydia to her baby during childbirth. Babies born to infected mothers can get pneumonia or infections in their eyes, also called conjunctivitis.

The more sex partners a person has, the greater the risk of getting infected with chlamydia. Chlamydia is easily confused with gonorrhea, another STD. Gonorrhea and chlamydia have similar symptoms and can have similar complications if not treated, but the two STDs have different treatments.

only from sex.

Answer 5

Not technically...Chlamydia can be transmitted by touch and sexually. Say if your partner has chlamydia either on his hand or his mouth...if your partner decides to finger you and has it on his hand you could most likely get it from him doing that, say if he had in his mouth, him just kissing you, yo could possibly get it! I hope that gives you a little bit more info. than you had!! :D
