Based on the facts that you have Hypospadias and has developed UTI after sex .Please note that having hypospadias has no relation to get UTI it is entirely due to unprotected sex most probably due to your female partner having vaginal infection .
Get your routine urine test and urine culture done to find out the organisms causing this infection and antibiotics to which they are sensitive to.
Please take broad spectrum antibiotics like Ciprofloxacin along with urinary antiseptic like Nitrofurantoin twice daily and urine alkalizer thrice daily .Later on switch on to appropriate antibiotics as per culture report.
Get the prescription of medicines from your family Physician.
Ensure to drink more water .To keep your urine dilute This will help to control dysuria.
Get your female partner /Wife examined by qualified Gynecologist for vaginal infection and ask her to take treatment if required .
