A doctor has provided 1 answer

UTI's: "Recurrent UTI's" may be caused by pockets of bacteria in urethral folds. Dilation of the urethra with a Foley #8 3 cc. balloon is useful to decrease multiple UTI's, after which, coverage by wide spectum antibiotics is recommended. Ask for a referral to a urologist, who may be able to perform the preceding. Periods at 32 may be late because of delayed ovulation. Wait 7 days and repeat the test.
