Urinary Tract Infection

A Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is a bacterial infection affecting the urinary system, commonly causing symptoms such as frequent urination, pain, and discomfort.

Natural medicine approaches like increasing fluid intake, consuming cranberry products, and using certain herbal supplements like uva-ursi or goldenseal might provide supportive benefits by potentially reducing bacterial growth and soothing urinary tract irritation, but antibiotics prescribed by healthcare professionals are often necessary to effectively treat UTIs and prevent complications.
