Urine: If urine culture was adequately done and is negative, then your symptoms are not due to urinary tract infection. You may have a vaginal issue (yeast infection) or bladder spams that can cause similar symptoms.

Check with your Dr.: Sometimes doctors treat UTI without doing a culture, which means that maybe your antibiotic is resistant to your strain of bacteria and you're not feeling better because antibiotic can't treat the infection. Check with your doctor to make sure a culture was done and that your bacteria is sensitive to the antibiotic you're on.
