<s>[INST] Can I get a UTI from sex? [/INST] The anatomy of women makes them prone to getting UTIs after having sex. The opening of the urethra is in front of the vagina. During sex, bacteria near the vagina can get into the urethra from contact with the penis, fingers, or sex toys.

UTIs tend to occur when you first start having sex or start having it more often. Using spermicide or a diaphragm for birth control can also cause more frequent UTIs. Source: ACOG.ORG.
