A member asked:

Can you transmit an sti before it incubates? for example, if you have sex and contract chlamydia, can it be transmitted the following day?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe.Maybe Not: That's an interesting question. Tell you what: get the person you poked tested and see if you did get that person infected. Better yet, get treated and do everyone a favor and wait 'till you're done with therapy. Then, from then on USE PROTECTION!!!!!
