HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
There are different causes of frequency of urination. Infection is the most common cause but this should have been detected by urine analysis.
The other causes: (1)side effect of medications such as diuretic
(2)diabetes
(3)interstitial cystitis
(4)stroke
(5)excess fluid intake
(6)bladder incontinence
Since infection has been ruled out, your doctor may need to consider other possible causes.
I hope this helps
