How is Chlamydia Spread? Physical Contact with infected secretions. Chlamydia is a microscopic bug. A “bacterium”, to be scientifically correct. Here's what they look like under a microscope, magnified so you can see them. Chlamydia likes to live inside of us. In women, they find their home in the vaginal secretions. In men it’s in the semen. Someone with chlamydia can pass it on to someone else during sex. During sex, the bugs get physically transferred from one person to the other. And by “sex”, I don’t mean just vaginal sex. Anal sex and oral sex will also spread the infection. As it’s all about the physical contact. So if you’ve had vaginal sex, the chlamydia bacteria may invade the cervix and vagina, the urethra (that’s the tube that carries urine) or the penis. If you’ve had anal sex, it can invade the rectum. And if it was oral sex, then the germs will invade the throat. It can also be carried on the hand to the eye, causing conjunctivitis, an eye infection that’s also called pinkeye. Worldwide, millions of people go blind through chlamydial infections. The good news is that there are simple tests to detect chlamydia, even when you’re showing no outward signs.
