I'm a woman, and have gotten several UTIs over the years, despite my best efforts.
Started getting the symptoms last week of another infection. Decided to wait a few days before going to the doc, and tried the following:
-Thoroughly cleaning 2-3x/day with extra mild soap
- Upping water intake to 5L/day from 3L
- Cutting almost all carbs out of diet
- Taking large daily doses of vitamin C (normally taken in winter to avoid colds, but has helped skin infections too, so gave it a try)
3 days later, all symptoms were gone! Of course, maybe it wasn't an infection, but still saved a doctor visit.
Note: Never had serious symptoms like a fever or bleeding. I only tried this due to the relatively low risk and lots of experience with this condition.
