A member asked:
Can someone get amebiasis by using a sex toy anally, then leaving it about 8-10 hours, and then someone else using it? or does it have to be ingested through the mouth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Oral is the commonest way for infection but oral/anal/ object infection can occur. There is a good chance that the ameba were dead if the surface was not wet. Not a good idea to share such objects.
