Cyroman	Cranberry Juice is the best bet. Also drinking plenty of water would be a good idea, flush out your system. Although, if it doesnt get better using these methods, seeing a doctor is still the best way to go. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

King John	cranberry juice really helps Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Chriss32	lots and lots of Cranberry juice. Also, they sell over the counter medication to help relieve the symptoms. I think it is called Azo or something like that. If it doesn't go away in a few days or if it gets worse, you will need to see your dr for an antibiotic. Good luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Christy T	Dont succumb to the crap American health system and try and self medicate.. go to a doctor. I realize it must suck to have to pay for medical care but suck it up and go. Don't drug yourself,, there's enough ads on your tv channels to choke a horse. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Monkey Mom	It is better to see a doctor and get antibiotics, but since you specified without meds....drink tons of water and. Cranberry juice. The Cranberry juice changes the pH of your urine and makes it hard for bacteria to survive. Don't drink any brown drinks.....I'm talking about bottles of Cranberry juice ...... drink at least one a day and more if possible. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

dreamer	I ultimately feel that a doctor should make sure that it really is a UTI before you try to treat it. It could be something else. Always be careful when using home remedies if you are taking any other medications too! I use Cranberry fruit concentrate soft gel pills. 2 or more pills after every meal with full glass of water. Pee often and completely (wait until ALL the pee is out (not dripping) before you are done). Drink TONS of water to flush your system, and get enough sleep, sleep helps your body regenerate and heal. If there is any pain involved or it becomes unbearable, your doctor is your best bet for sure. Good luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Flower Girl	Yogurt and Cranberry juice, that'll fix you right up! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

maha689	cranberry juice HELPS but you can not cure it with antibiotics...you have a bacterial infection and the only thing that will fix it is an antibiotics. if you don't go to the doctor, you are only hurting yourself.

bigsissam	You cannot you can make it feel better but without antibiotics it will come back and it will be worse, believe me I have tried it is not worthe the pain just go to the doctor. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

T S	Try Garlic. Eat a Clove two times every day. Doesn't matter if it's pickled or even just chopped up and cooked in some eggs or something. Could try microwaving it for 1 minute until it's soft, too. I found that the Garlic pills you can get don't work. It has to be the real thing from the grocery store. But seek antibiotics if it doesn't help soon. Things like this can be very serious. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lmwright26	you really should seek a doctor, but if you're not willing to do here's what i found (website below).... "Number one rule in treating UTI is to drink lots of water. This will help flush the bacteria out of your bladder and urinary Tract. Avoid eating dairy products and chocolate. You should also avoid spicy foods, carbinated drinks, alcohol and coffee. D-Mannose can be bought at a health food story. Cranberry Juice -- Cranberry juice is an old staple in curing urinary Tract infection. It is probably the most popular of all the remedies for UTI. Remember to use 100% unsweetened Cranberry juice even if it is tart. One way to deal with the tartness is to dilute the juice in water as you are going to need to drink a lot of water anyway. Uva Ursi -- This is an excellent herb for treating urinary Tract infection. Uva Ursi contains arbutin a chemical that has antiseptic and analgesic properties that are helpful in clearing the urinary Tract of bacteria. It is also Astringent and has diuretic effects that help reduce the accumulation of uric acid. Uva Ursi has been used by herbalists for bladder infections and to ease the pain of uriniary stones or gravel." Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
