Try to get that cranberry juice fr0m the pharmacy, that has no sugar added. It's more expensive but no sugar added. The usual drinks (OceanSpray, etc) have tons of sugar and the bugs causing UTI thrive on sugar.

Cranberry pills work too.

Good luck.

If you dont like cranberry juice you can take the cranberry pills and drink water.  Good luck.

You can drink cranberry juice. Can be like crangrape cranapple etc. Or you can eat yogurt. Both help prevent uti's. Also make sure you drink plenty of water.   I used to get bladder and uti's a lot. The dr told me to drink the cranberry juice once a month or eat a lot of yogurt and that solved my problem...
