I have been experiencing frequent urination for the past six months. After urinating, I feel the urge to go again within a minute. The urge is stronger when sitting or lying down, and it is difficult to start urinating. Sometimes the flow stops midway. I also feel my bladder is not completely empty. I consulted a urologist who performed a cystoscopy and found anterior urethritis. He prescribed Azithromycin, Doxycycline, Cranberry extract softgel, Nitrofurantoin, Flavoxate, and Alfuzosin hydrochloride, but my symptoms did not improve. After a month, I went for a follow up, and urine R/E was normal. He then prescribed Gabapentin 300 mg for 15 days. USG and all other lab reports are normal. Despite this, I still have to urinate every 15 to 20 minutes. Reports: Urea: 22 mg/dL Creatinine: 0.7 mg/dL Fasting Blood Sugar: 96 mg/dL What should I do next? Please help.

It is taking almost 5 minutes to completely pass urine. If I forcibly stop urinating, I still have the sensation, which is very uncomfortable. I am attaching my USG KUB test report. Kindly do the needful?
