A member asked:

Can i get rid of a uti without taking antibiotics?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not likely: At times very frequent voiding of large volumes of urine may dilute out some bacteria. Some bacteria may be affected by changes in the urine ph. But these are uncommon ; best to be treated with an antibiotic for which the bacteria is sensitive.
