It seems eating lots of pineapple help to clear up urinary track infection. Yogurt does not work so well. True

Actually, no food will "clear up" a UTI. A UTI is a bacterial infection and must be treated by a physician with anitbiotics. If you do not seek treatment by a physician the UTI can travel up into the kidneys and result in a very painful and sometimes lethal kidney infection. Cranberry juice can PREVENT a UTI by helping the urinary tract resist bacteria that is attempting to adhere to the urinary tract.

Don't know. They help for UTI's, but that's not the same thing. Try Monistat for the yeast infection.

yogurt helps bladder infections because it has good bacteria. that good bacteria eats away the bad bacteria. however if you have a bladder infection, it is always best to drink water to flush it out. also drink cranberry juice as it does work because of its acids. bacteria can't live in acidic places. you can also try cranberry pills which also work well. probiotics do not cause bladder infections but if you are on some antibiotic, it might work against it. seek advice from your doctor.

Possible UTI (urinary tract infection)?\n\nShould get the chest pain checked out :-)

you probably have a UTI. It is not a major malfunction, BUT you need to get some antibiotics so don't be scared to tell someone who can help. Women get them ALL the time. Men get them too. It is a common ailment. You will need to go to the doctor though. I don't think that what you drink has anything to do with it.

There is some medical evidence that cranberry juice reduces the frequency of UTIs.  There is also some support for routinely urinating within 30 minutes after sexual intercourse, as well as for avoiding the use of spermicides.\n\nThe British Medical Journal has a nice free 1-pager on this topic at:\nhttp://bmj.bmjjournals.com/cgi/reprint/327/7425/1204\n\nEnjoy!

Well you need to eat more yogurt it will give you good bacteria in your vagina to eat the bad bacteria.... Eat at least 2 or 3 yogurts a day for the first week and then gradually go from that to 4 or 5 a week it will help....Plus it's healthy.....

Reduce your sugar intake and ingest yogurt made with Lactobacillus acidophilus. Wear breathable clothing. Your infection should dissipate.

have you taken them to a doctor?  does he have a urinary infection?  Mt step son went to the bathroom like every 3 min.. when he was 4 the doctor said it was just habbit.  So I started giving him juice and told him it was magic pee juice.  And that it would make him stop peeing all the time. And he quit.  It was all in his head.

Since you have diabetes, I would suggest cranberry capsules, which have virtually all the sugar processed out of the cranberry but leave the good properties.  Drink a lot of water to help flush out your kidneys.  Chamommile tea seems to help as well, as does green tea.  Since they are light diuretics, they can get your kidneys working a little overtime to flush out the infection a little quicker.  Something I've found useful as well is to take an Airborne tablet every day while you're trying to get rid of the infection to help boost your body's immune system (I plop on in a cup of hot chamommile tea).  Be careful when bathing as well to use a very gentle soap, one without glycerine as glycerine can irritate the sensitive tissues down there (you don't want a UTI in addition to the kidney infection).

Cranberry juice helps prevent urinary tract infections, it has nothing to do with your vagina. Yoghurt promotes the growth of good bacteria in the vagina and everywhere else in your body. It only works if it says live and active cultures on the container.

You may not believe this, but after a year and a half of taking antibiotics for a recurring UTI, and ending up in the hospital in anaphactic shock, I was told to buy a bunch of parsley, rinse it off, boil it in 1 qt of water, drink the broth and eat the parsley.  At this point I was willing to try anything, so I tried it.  I have not had a UTI in 6 years.

Lots of cranberry juice, water, eat blueberries (actually better for a UTI than cranberries).  \n\nSeriously though, you need an antibiotic.  AZO is meant as temporary relief until you can get to a doctor.  If left untreated, you could cause severe damage to yourself.
