Fluids: Drinking lots of water can sometimes "flush" the bacteria out without the need of an antibiotic. Cranberry juice and / or supplements may help but if your symptoms persist for over 3 days or get worse, see a doctor for treatment

Antibiotics: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are caused by microorganisms, such as bacteria. Antibiotics are the mainstay of treatment and are usually produced by or synthesized from other microorganisms, such as molds. So, technically, antibiotics are made from natural products. If you are concerned you may have a UTI, please see your doctor. UTIs can progress and threaten your health.
