I have had a UTI or yeast infection on and off for about a month again... the doctor told me to treat it with antibiotics so I did, but then I became resistant to them so I took fluconazole which 100% helped. However, 5-6 days later I felt symptoms again... So I took another fluconazole which helped but then I felt symptoms again and got my period which I think only made things worse. At the beginning of this all I saw a gyno and my culture came out negative which was confusing. I just want to get better!!! This time it started off feeling like I had to pee a lot... then the next day a lot of burning... and now like I have to pee a lot. I have no idea what triggered this other than my period, or possibly that one time in a restaurant the bathroom didn't have toilet paper so I couldn't wipe. HELP!
UTI/Yeast infection keeps coming back...help!?

I've had uti and yeast on and off for years. Some antibiotics DON'T work. I have to drink alot of water to flush bacteria. In my opinion I've found that when I have sex in doggie style position I will get a uti.I believe my mate being uncircumcised play a role. Also I use to have to pee and would hold it. Now anytime I feel the urge I pee. The doctor told us to urinate and wash private part before and after sex. The yeast I can only use unscented dove. Seem to work.
