Stop caffiene: And acidic beverages, may have interstitial cystitis. Next time a culture needs to be done, if negative see a urogyn doc. If positive may need a preventitive antibiotic.

Perhaps: Need to get checked...That's too many utis in a short period of time. If the utis are clearly sexually related in the absence of other problems, your doc may give you antibiotics to use prophylactically at the time of sex.

Wash before/after se: Always wash your genitalia before and after sex if you are having recurrent utis after sex, drink more fluids like water help flush any germs, pass urine after sex dont hold it, and if you have painful urination drink more water and cranberry juice.If that does not help you should see a urologist and may need antibiotics prophylaxix.
