How Is Chlamydia Transmitted?

I was diagnosed with chlamydia about a month ago then received treatment. I began sleeping with someone 2 weeks after I was given the all clear. It was protected. But I need to know whether I can contract it again through fingering, the use of toys, contaminated lubricant or if he rubs his thing on me when it s not protected?

Hello,

Chlamydia can be transmitted with it unprotected sex. Also, it can be transmitted with secretions and contaminated toys or lubrification or seminal fluid.

You should sterilize these objects before using them.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
