  2. Giving Oral Sex
    • If the person receiving oral sex has genital or rectal chlamydia, the bacteria can infect your throat.

    • If symptoms appear, they may include:

Preventing Chlamydia Transmission During Oral Sex

  3. Open Communication

  4. Avoid Oral Sex During Symptoms

Testing and Treatment

  • Testing: If you suspect exposure, consult a healthcare provider for a throat swab, urine test, or genital swab to confirm infection.
