Some adults, especially women, get bladder infections frequently.

In this case, it is important to confirm at least once that your symptoms are caused by a bladder infection, and the best way to confirm an infection is through urine tests.

Recurrent bladder infections are usually treated the same way as the initial infection, unless it is caused by a resistant bacteria.

If you continue to get bladder infections, your doctor may order further tests including scans.

Women with recurrent UTIs may be advised to take steps to help prevent them, which were included in the video above. 

Preventive antibiotics may be recommended if you repeatedly develop bladder infections and have not responded to other preventive measures.

But antibiotics for preventing UTIs should only be considered after trying the above preventive approaches.
