Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
For an uncomplicated UTI that occurs when you're otherwise healthy, your doctor may recommend a shorter course of treatment, such as taking an antibiotic for one to three days. But whether this short course of treatment is enough to treat your infection depends on your particular symptoms and medical history. A type of this treatment may be monuril.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
