It keeps a pool of usable RTP ports, and when it needs to listen for
RTP, it chooses one from the pool.  There is no specified need for the
port to remain the same or differ between dialogs, or even within one
dialog (when a re-INVITE is done).

Every time the UA receives SDP in an initial INVITE or re-INVITE, it
needs to check the ports specified in the SDP to see what ports it
should be sending RTP to for that dialog.
