    How can people with chlamydia avoid spreading it?

     

    • Inform your sex partners of the infection (or ask your physician to help you in contact tracing and treatment);
    • Have no sex until treatment is complete (oral sex included) - or use barriers (condom, dental dam, etc.) for all sexual contact..."safe sex";
    • Be sure that your sex partner(s) are screened and treated at the same time.
    • Use female or male condoms every time;
    • All sexual contacts should be screened for chlamydia. Sexual partners must be treated to prevent passing the infection back and forth between them, even though both may not have symptoms. There is no immunity following the infection and a person may become repeatedly infected;
    • Ensure proper handwashing during treatment so as to prevent the transfer of the infection to your eyes.
