Your boyfriend used saliva lubrication before protected sex can you get reinfected with chlamydia?

If your boyfriend performed oral sex on you while you had chlamydia it could be transferred to his mouth orally. He would still have to have chlamydia sores present in his mouth in order to transfer chlamydia to you.

It is rare chlamydia is in the mouth, because in order for it to be there, the mouth would have to have direct contact with the sore. That is why you can have chlamydia in your body, but you can still kiss your mate and he won't get chlamydia.

Hope this helps!
