Sorry to read of your problem.  Urethral dilation is not done much anymore. Your complaints could be caused by a number of things.  Infection, elNlargement of the uterus, ovarian cyst, failure to completely empty your bladder at the time of voiding.  An examination by your ObGyn should be helpful.

Thank you for your help. I had went to my doctor and she said that she didn't find any kind of infection. And told me to come back in next week for a urine sample and if they didn't see an infection that she would have to send me to a urologist. Would she beable to do any kind of exam on me to check for any of that?
