Can you get a UTI from sex?

Yes, bacteria that lives in the vagina, genital, and anal areas enter the urethra, travel to the bladder, and cause an infection. This can happen during sexual activity when bacteria from your partner's genitals, anus, fingers, or sex toys gets pushed into your urethra.
