A member asked:

Can you get staphylococcus infection any other way besides from tampons? i know its not a std but can you get this infection from having sex.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not really.: This would be very unlikely. Safe sex is really all about chlamydia, hiv, gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes and hepatitis.
