Prolonged period: There is no connection between the staph infection and your prolonged period. I presume you are taking antibiotics for the infection. Consult your physician or gyn regarding your prolonged menses.

No: This is not normal. If this is a frequent issue for you, then certainly see someone about it. It is simple to make a diagnosis and formulate a treatment plan.
