Girls, Positive UTI?

Did you use all 3 test strips? What do they look like all 3 together? Also what medication are you referring to? Are you talking about Pyridium which is OTC and turns your pee orange? All that does is numb your pee hole so it doesn't burn as bad. Pyridium does absolutely nothing to get rid of a UTI. Most UTIs are caused by bacteria or e. coli in the urine. You need an antibiotic to get this UTI knocked out. If a UTI is left untreated it can cause kidney failure.
Years ago, I went to the gynecologist for UTI. They prescribed me pills that also turned my pee orange. They were a lot stronger than the AZO pills. That I also felt it helped somewhat, since my abdominal wasn’t as bloated as before with UTI.
Then I started taking herbal supplements like dandelion roots and probiotics.
But what really brought my swelling down is high vitamin C drinks with bioflavonoids. Like grape 🍇 and cranberry juices.
Pyridium which is the chemical compound in AZO is hard on the kidneys. A prescription-strength version of Pyridium would be 100mg to 200mg, whereas the AZO OTC version is only 95mg. They only thing it does is numbs your urinary tract. It does nothing for the bacteria setting up shop in you bladder. Keep an eye out for any fever.
It should say on the test package… I've never taken this test, but based on this, you tested positive for a UTI.
I suggest going to your general doctor and asking for a prescription of antibiotics. Don’t leave it untreated.
Yeah I have the package but it just seemed kind of confusing to me that it wasn’t completely purple. I would see a doctor but I’m supposed to be leaving on a plane tomorrow 😩 luckily, I got the medication for it in case it was positive
Those are always confusing😂 Im glad you got the medication, drink lots of water too 😊
AZO pills are strong. They make you pee a lot and constantly. It’s hard to leave the toilet 🚽 with so much orange pee. Which by the way, the pills make your pee orange.
