Chlamydia can be transmitted during vaginal, anal, or oral sex. Chlamydia can also be passed from an infected mother to her baby during vaginal childbirth. It can also be passed by sharing sex toys.

Any sexually active person can be infected with chlamydia. The greater the number of sex partners, the greater the risk of infection. Because the cervix (opening to the uterus) of teenage girls and young women is not fully matured, they are at particularly high risk for infection if sexually active. Since chlamydia can be transmitted by oral or anal sex, men who have sex with men are also at risk for chlamydial infection.

You cannot get Chlamydia from:

  • Kissing
  • Hugging
  • Sharing baths or towels
  • Swimming Pools
  • Toilets seats
  • Sharing cups, plates or cutlery
