Staph epidermidis is common bacteria on the skin (normal skin flora) and it's often considered a contaminant with urine culture. No, staph epidermidis is not a causative organism for sexual transmitted diseases. Take care.

It is not transmissible with protection. There is an outside chance of getting it thru oral sex when you had that infection. It should heal with treatment
