Denmark had the highest notification rate of chlamydia in 2022, with over 708 cases per 100,000 population, followed by Norway, with a notification rate of approximately 539 per 100,000. Chlamydia is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in Europe, and like any STI, it is principally transmitted through unprotected sexual intercourse.
Condom use in Europe
The use of condoms, as well as its application as a contraceptive, can be very highly effective in stopping the transmission of STIs from person to person. In 2018, Finland had the highest prevalence in Europe of women aged 15 to 49 years using the male condom as their main form of contraception with almost 31 percent doing so. Additionally, Spain and the United Kingdom had a 28.4 and 27 percent share respectively of women using the male condom for contraception.
