Hello

Recurrent UTI may be due to many reasons.It need proper clinical examination and investigations.

Besides clinical examination,you may need routine investigations.
Investigations include routine hemogram,random blood sugar,urine RE/ME,urine culture and sensitivity,ultrasound of abdomen.
You may need to take antibiotics depending upon findings.
You should drink plenty of water.
If there is underlying cause detected then it should be corrected also.

Get well soon.
Take Care
