A urinary tract infection is caused when bacteria gets into your bladder by the urethra. This bacteria can then travel up the ureters into the kidneys causing pylonephritis (kidney infection). The most common bacteria that causes a urinary tract infection is E Coli. A urinary tract infection is not contagious. However you should not participate in sexual activity as you can introduce new bacteria into the urinary tract. Also it is important to urinate after sexual activity to help "flush" away any bacteria that may be trying to travel up the urethra. peeing after sexual activity doesn't mean it stops you from becoming pregnant.

To answer the question is somewhat difficult being that these two illnesses are completely different. One is a urinary tract infection which is caused by a bacteria getting into the urinary system and has nothing to do with an STD (sexually transmitted disease). So to answer your question I will offer three different answers. 1) No, urinary tract infections are not contagious and are very common in women. 2) No, a urinary tract infection can not cause an STD. 3) One must have an STD in order to give another an STD; which again has nothing to do with a urinary tract infection. Anyone can get a urinary tract infection and it has nothing to do with intercourse; even animals can get these infections. Hope this helps and take care, Jupiter's Dawn
