Have taken about 3 sets of antibiotics for a uti in the previous months. uti still present. what could be the cuase of this?

Recurrent UTI: Are you getting your urine tested each time, or just taking the abx for symptoms? If testing positive, see a urologist who specialises in women for more evaluation. Is it related to intercourse? There are ways to avoid this! If getting cramping and you take the abx without actually testing the urine, it may just be bladder spasm. This can be treated with short-term anti-spasm meds. Good luck.
