A member asked:
If someone have chlamydia of the mouth can it spread by kissing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very rare: Chlamydia transfer involves extensive exposure of mucosa to infected fluid; it would be hard to imagine kissing fervently enough to lead to transmission, but due to proximity, it is always possible. The vast majority of the time, transmission is by sexual contact.
