Keep getting UTI's
This is my second UTI in like a month. I always pee and shower after sex and we do use condoms. I know its a UTI because I went to the gyno. I'm just wondering why this keeps happening to me?

I used to always get them, I haven't lately but try this to help, get some cranberry juice and mix a little bit of apple cider vinegar in with it every time you drink it, it will help I promise.

Some women are more prone to UTIs then others. I really can't say that UTIs are caused by sex. If they were they would be listed as an STD, which they are not.
I would suggest you speak to your Gyno as to what he or she thinks the cause may be. I would also suggest seeking out the advice of a Urologist as repeated UTIs my be systematic of something further up the in the Urinary track.
As I said I really do not believe sex has anything to do with UTIs. My belief is that UTIs has more to do with diet, or other internal infections that are not responding to the antibiotics your gyno is prescribing. Repeated infections tells me you need to look further up stream for the cause and that requires a consultation with a Urologist.
Your Gyno is only trained to go so far. Then onward and upward to the next specialist until the actual cause is found. Right now it appears you are treating the symptom and not the cause, so see a Urologist next.

UTI can be caused through many things. I sugeest you absence yourself from sexual activity for a few weeks to see if this is the underlying cause to your problem.
