Daughter - frequent urination

My daughter has had an intermittent problem with frequent urination.  I'm not sure if it's a UTI, because there is no burning involved, just a feeling of almost constantly having to go to the bathroom.  What's weird is that it only seems to bother her in the mornings.  In the afternoon and evening she seems to be fine.  I thought it may be a mild UTI with no pain, so I've been having her drink cranberry juice and taking Uristat, which seemed to have helped for a few days, now this morning it happened again.

She is 14 years old and it's hard for her to get ready and get to school on time, when she's in the bathroom 4 times in the morning.

Anyone know if this is UTI or maybe something else?

They may be able to do a pelvic ultrasound on her bladder in the office at the Urologists, to see if there a cyst or something pressing on her bladder.

Uristat provides relief but it is not a cure,so you should take your daughter to see a doctor,he will prescribe the necessary medication if it were URI.
