Suggest Treatment For Frequent Urinations

Posted on Mon, 30 Jan 2017

Question: I'm a 20 year old male and the past few days I've had frequent urination problems. I'll go to the bathroom and pee with a normal stream, than right after I'll feel the pressure that I need to pee more even though I do not. I just started an internship so this is quite distracting right now and I did go to the doctor this morning. the doc didn't find bacteria in my urinalysis for a UTI, but found some very small traces of blood that were micro. She also sent urine out to the lab to test for STD's n put me on meds for Chlamydia as a precautionary procedure because I am sexually active.

So I'm just wondering what could be wrong with me if its not a UTI and that there is blood?? I been working myself up over this and its distracting. I know there are many ranges of what this could be, but I hope its not like a tumor/cancer or something along those lines. Thanks for any input!

Hello ,
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have increased frequency for urination mostly due to UTI

Hello and Thanks for the response!

1) I have no pain
2)I don't have any burn except 1 time, which was when I woke
up this morning and first went to the bathroom, but ever since
I've had none.
3)I've had sex with 3 different girls in the last few months
and 1 time the condom broke but I stopped right away and I've
received oral unprotected
4) No discharge from what I've noticed

- I went to the doctor already today and I was told no bacteria
was visible for a UTI diagnosis besides some blood that they noticed that was microscopic

- I was prescribed Azrithromycin (4 tablets at once, each being 250mg)
I was given this because its procedure at my school to give chlamydia meds
to those with urination issues

- I understand I may have an STI, this is all pretty sudden to me
and I'm going to be more careful, I'm just hoping its nothing to serious
because I have a lot going on right now so my time is limited with school
and all.

- So from my description, do you have any clue what this may be?
