Hello.In your urine test bacteria are detected.By the positive analysis and your symptoms is recommended take antibiotic.Before taking antibiotic you must collect a sample of your urine and give the doctor for realize a urine culture(detect the bacteria that cause infection and antibiotics that kill bacteria).After giving the sample to the doctor, starting empirical treatment, pending culture results.Fosfomycin or Cefuroxime are Widely used in the treatment of lower urinary tract infection.Please consult your local doctor for a prescription.Also tell you that if you have fever,it means that infection of lower urinary tract has progressed to kidney and therefore you must go to Emergency Service.I wish you good health.

Hi,

I would rely only on the presence of protein which is trace; in other words you are having urinary tract infection.

I would suggest to let your periods finish first, then, do a urine culture to get the appropriate antibiotic treatment.

Meanwhile, I would suggest to

- take herbal teas that can treat kidney or urinary tract infections;

- potassium and magnezium citrate to relieve the burning sensation;

- mephenamic acid or acetaminophen for the pain (no other antalgezics as they can increase the blood flow)

- drink plenty of water; usually oligomineral waters are the best (see the duracy of your drinking water)

Hope it helped!
