Not only will starship captains and crew not be able to have sex with the hot aliens they meet

Not so fast, we do have some convenient barrier device to avoid contamination in this context.

I guess it's possible to have safe alien sex with a full body latex suit and respirator. Though maybe think twice if the alien has sharp spike features.

At which point would it be worth it anyways?

If the alien is hot and willing. Preferably not crazy, but I'm sure some will take the risk even if they are.
