2 Months Ago I Was Given A Prescription Of Testosterone

Question: 2 months ago I was given a prescription of testosterone therapy that contained dhea in it from a doctor I was given a months supply at 600 mg per week. After I finished the prescription I noticed that I was having erectile dysfunction both weak erections and then premature ejaculation that is being caused by frequent urination. So after I finished the testosterone the next two weeks I was very sensitive in my penis and ejaculated quickly so I stopped doing the testosterone treatments from the doctor. Then at the three week mark the hypersensitivity left my penis as did the premature ejaculation but I was left with erectile dysfunction and a CONSTANT urge to urinate.
At the 4 week mark the erectile dysfunction went away and I have firm strong erections. but the constant urge to urinate has not left, so for the last 4 weeks I urinate probably every 10-30 minutes consistently for the last 4 weeks I have waited for a while for this to go away because this has happened to me before after taking testosterone and I visited a urologist last time. but I cant seem to make this go away on my own. So I am reaching out to your services to see if you have any answers because my sex life is on pause and I am exhausted from urinating constantly. And no I have not seeked the consult of a urologist yet because they cant see me till the 12 of January.
I have tried Flomax for a week
I have tried Avodart for a week
And 10 days of Bactrim
What would be ur next advice for treatment medicine wise?
