Currently there is no clear evidence that chlamydia causes cervical cancer. Research is still ongoing. How can I protect myself from chlamydia? Use condoms (male or female) every time you have vaginal or anal sex. • If you have oral sex, cover the penis with a condom or the female genitals with a latex or polyurethane (plastic) square (dam). • If you are not sure how to use condoms correctly see our information on Where can I get more information and advice? • Avoid sharing sex toys. If you do share them, wash them or cover them with a new condom before anyone else uses them. These measures can also help to protect you from some other STIs such as HIV, and gonorrhoea. If you have chlamydia without knowing it they will also help prevent you from passing it on to your partner.
