Can my husband give me a uti? everyttime we have intercorse i end up getting a uti? if not how to prevent a uti?

Yes: The act of intercourse can push bacteria into the uretha. Would suggest emptying your bladder immediatly after intercourse, and if this keeps occuring talk to your health provider for a prophyllactic medication--like macrodantin--to take after intercourse.
