Should Repetitive Urinary Tract Infection Be Treated With Antibiotics?

Hi, I´ve been repeatedly treated with antibiotics for urinary tract infection (twice in three months). Now the results have shown that I suffer from the same infection again ( 10^4 e.coli/ml) ... Do I need to take antibiotics again and should I contact immunologist as well? Thank you

You have urinary tract infection. You should take antibiotics like levofloxacin or norfloxacin according to your culture report.
