Brief Answer:
Urinary tract infection should be ruled out.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM

I have gone through your query. Lower urinary tract infection or urethritis can give such symptoms. Doing a Urine routine test will be helpful to rule out urinary infection. Blood sugar levels also should be checked to rule out Diabetes.
In case of positive infection antibiotic therapy will be needed. Taking cranberry juice and barley water is good to dilute urine and relieve symptoms.
If these are clear then you should get a pelvic examination by gynecologist to rule out other problems.

Let me know if anything not clear.
I am happy to help you.
Thanks.
