if you dont want to go to the dr get a big bottle of cranapple or cranberry or cranraspberry juice and drink it till its gone if you dont feel better in a week you will have to go to the dr pee in a cup and he will give you a script for an antibiotic and tell you to take it till its gone no matter how you feel

try alka seltzer, two tabs in six ounces of water every six hours for twenty four hours. I've found this effective in early infections. If you've had symptoms for more than three days tho, you will need to bite the bullet and see the doctor. They will give you antibiotics to take.

See the doctor anyhow, you can give a urine sample if you wear a tampon. Don't delay on this, these infections can back up to your kidneys and cause major problems.

from my experience they dont just go away , you can hide the symptoms but its better to wait till your period is over if your scared about the doctors and then get it looked at. trust me
