A member asked:
I was diagnosed with chlamydia. if i rubbed my penis against another penis while infected (frottage, skin to skin), what are the chances i spread it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Low risk, not zero: Without insertive sex, the chance of transmission was very low. However, if your penis-penis contact involved direct contact of your meatus (urethral opening) with your partner's meatus, there probably was risk of transmission. It's best for such partners to be informed and treated.
