Specializes in Internal Medicine

Probiotics: I'm sorry to hear that! you can consider asking your doctor for a recommendation for probiotics, orally or intravaginally. Cranberry juice is historically a treatment for recurrent uti, more recent data suggests against it, but in this particular situation, acidification of the urine may help with your issue. Good luck!
