Hi I'm 16, About three months ago, I got a uti and I got antibiotics and everything. It went away for awhile. Then right before I started my period and all during my period I had a uti and the antibiotics seemed to help again. A month after that, I got a uti and sure enough I started my period. Right now I am experiencing pulling and pressure in my bladder. It feels like my bladder muscles are pulling and just want to pee a lot. It doesn't burn when I pee and I have no blood. Im miserable!!!! I am sexually active but stds have been ruled out. I pee after sex, also wipe front to back and use non scented soaps. I do everything I can and they keep coming back! Could this be interstitial cystitis?

      Have you actually had a urine culture to determine what infection (if any) is present? It is detrimental to your health to take powerful antibiotics if the problem is actually not an infection. Bladder pain can have other causes.

    I'd agree with Madge.  Are you sure it is actually a UTI?  Did they test your urine and do a culture?  It sounds a bit like it's something more connected to your periods like  increased sensitivity maybe.
