Constant?: If you are having recurrent infections you need to see the doctor to determine if it is the same organism or not. There may be physical factors -like too tight clothes or sexual practices that may be contributing. You may be holding your urine for too long. All this needs to be reviewed.

Many factors: I would recommend evaluation by a urologist or urogynecologist. More than 3 uti's per year need to be evaluated. Plus other conditions can give similar symptoms.
