I have had a problem for many years with reaccuring uti's. I get them very frequently, especially after sex. I have pain and burning during sex even without the uti. Most antiobiotics dont work to alleviate the infection and they reaccur frequently. Doctor after doctor check me, give me an antiobiotic and send me on my way.Help me to figure out why and how to get rid of this for good.

Get an evaluation by a qualified pelvic floor physical therapist. It could be your pelvic floor muscles giving the symptoms of recurrent UTI. This is especially true if your urine cultures have been returning as negative.
