Yes is is possible for recurrance to a UTI, however if you take precautions it is unlikely to return.

Here are some home remedies to help you as well as preventive ideas:

Water:
Drink lots of water (6-8 glass) daily and your infection will clear up in no time. Try to pee as often as you can (even though you already have the urge!


).Apple cider vinegar, Honey:
Mix 2 tsp of apple cider vinegar with 1 tsp of Honey in a glass of warm water. Drink 6 times a daily!


Asparagus:
Get about 6 asparagus stalks and boil them until they get squashy. Let stand until cool; then eat and drink the juice.  Sulfur
Eat foods that are high in sulfur: Spinach, Asparagus, Brussels sprouts, Onions, Cabbage, Beans/Peas, Garlic, Wheat germ, Almonds, etc.Cranberry
Drink plenty of cranberry juice at the very first sign of an infection, at least two glass a day. Cranberry juice prevents bacteria from sticking to bladder walls. Try to drink the real cranberry juice, If you cant get the real deal, you can make it by Taking a bag of fresh or frozen cranberries and boil them in water (they will fall apart). Cool and drink. This remedy is also useful for people with kidney problems as well.Another good remedy for preventing bladder infection (UTI) is to Urinate before and after sexual intercourse.

Ideally you should be rid of UTI if you have been taken the course of antibiotics prescribed by your doctor. If you have a query about this, I think your doctor should be able to address your concerns and guide you correctly.
