Question 1

i always have protected anal sex receiving. how did i get chlamydia? i get fingered and rimmed bare sometimes. can i still have oral sex it's clean.

Accepted Answer

See remark: Chlamyia is transmiited by sexual contact from on partner to another..Avoid oral sex if you had anal sex with your partner at all cost.

Question 2

my girl cheated on me and caught chlamydia(in her vagina).can i still have unprotected anal sex with her or should i wait until her treatment is done?

Accepted Answer

?you want chlamydia?: Chlamydia is easily passed from an infected source during unprotected sex.Condoms offer some but not perfect protection. Waiting makes sense unless you want the risk.

Question 3

can having anal sex often cause chlamydia?

Accepted Answer

Not the cause: Having anal sex is not the cause of chlamydia.  Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection.  Anytime you have unprotected sex you run the risk of contracting a STD. The lining of the anus is thin,does not self lubricating therefore can have small tears during intercourse. If you are concerned about possibly having a STD please see your doctor or go to a public health facility for testin

Question 4

can a guy get chlamydia from performing anal sex?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Chlamydia doesn't choose where it lives.  Anus, rectum, vagina...All good places for the organism.  Use condoms!

Question 5

my fianc got chlamydia when we had anal sex .. how did i get it in the first place if i never did that with anyone else !

Accepted Answer

Well : A chlamydia infection could have occurred with anal or vaginal sex that either of you have had in the past. It can be "silent" for a long time - which means that you might not even know that you have it.

Question 6

foul brown rectal discharge. started when infected with chlamydia but was treated for that. no anal sex. what is this?

Accepted Answer

C. difficile?: A common cause of symptoms of this nature after a course of antibiotics can be Clostridium difficile colitis. You could also have Giardiasis, or any of a dozen or more causes of colitis. Go and see a doctor and when you get there be prepared to provide a stool specimen. Good luck

Question 7

how long should i wait to get tested after having receptive anal sex? in particular i want to get tested for rectal chlamydia+gonhorrea+syphilis.

Accepted Answer

STI testing time: Two weeks after potential exposure should be a good time to be tested and I would add HIV to the list. Practicing safe sex is essential in protecting yourself from these STIs. Receptive anal sex is perhaps the highest rate of transmission. Please use your condoms.

Question 8

i have all the symptoms of chlamydia/gonorreha in my anus but have not had sex with any one in months and have never had any kind of anal sex or toys ever?

Accepted Answer

: Based on the information provided, it is highly unlikely that you have chlamydia or gonorrhea in your anus if you have not engaged in any sexual activity involving the anus. However, it is still important to seek medical attention and get tested for other possible conditions or infections. The symptoms of chlamydia and gonorrhea in the anus can include pain, discharge, bleeding, and itching.

Question 9

if you get chlamydia in the rectum through anal sex, is it possible for ir to also infect the penis/urethra? or will it just stay in the rectum?

Accepted Answer

Here are some...: The described scenario poses high likelihood to infect urethra also. So, seek professional evaluation, treatment, and counseling timely if symptomatic &amp; concerned. Of course, make sure of treating and following partner as well. Best wishes...

Accepted Answer
