A member asked:
I've had frequent uti about three in the past couple months, why am i having so many uti is there something more serious wrong?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Recurrent UTI: Certain things can predispose to recurrent UTI (assuming confirmed UTI each time, not just symptoms). Sex can trigger it; diaphragm or cervical cap; anatomic problems in urinary tract; others. Impotant to know if it's the same vs different bacteria each time. Prevention often is simple, e.g. an antibiotic dose 1-2 x a week, or after sex. Consider seeing an infectious diseases specialist.
