A member asked:
Can i get reinfected with chlamydia without having any sexual activity
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: People get chlamydia by having sex with someone who has the infection. “having sex” means anal, vaginal, or oral sex. Chlamydia can still be transmitted even if a man does not ejaculate. People who have had chlamydia and have been treated can get infected again if they have sex with an infected person.
