Doxycycline

Hi everyone,

For about five months now I have had symptoms (trapped urine/always feeling like i needed to pee/irregular bleeding especially after sex). My doctor prescribed me nitrofurantoin for a uti which didn't help at all. I was tested for a uti a couple of weeks later and the test came back negative.

Then I got a full sti screening and was prescribed Doxycycline which- hallelujah! -has greatly improved my symptoms and given me so much relief

But today, the day after I finished my antibiotics, my sti tests have all come back negative...

My question is what could have been wrong with me that wasn't a uti or sti?
