Make sure you drink plenty of water, empty your bladder when you get the urge, avoid constipation and complete your treatment. It is not related to your becoming a vegan.

Urine is less acidic in people with vegetarian diet so it may apply in your case because some bacteria may grow better in a less acidic urine. Urine pH is usually less than 6. Do you know what bacteria you have been battled with when having recurrent cystitis?
