I am a female, age 15. My weight is 132 and my height is 5'3". I have had a UTI in the beginning of this month, and had another one last week, I am done taking the pills but I have still had some pain during urination. I am bloated, I have gas, some constipation, pains like period in my lower tummy and right side also. My menstrual period doesnt start for another two weeks. I have had kidney failure when I was 9 years old.. What could I have?

Your repeated urinary infection suggest that the antibiotic you are taking are not effective or there may be some obstruction in your urinary track like kidney stone or ureteral stenosis. Hence your urine should be tested for culture and sensitivity and appropriate antibiotic should be given. You also need an ultra sonography of abdomen to rule out some pathalogy. As you have suffered from kidney failure earlier it is better to get the opinion of a nephrologist also.
