UTI Home Test

2023-10-15 10:18:08
I took a UTI Home test & the test pad for leukocytes changed colour very slightly(orange) (it's supposed to turn a shade of purple), but the nitrite test pad remained neutral(yellow). I think I have a UTI as I have been experiencing fatigue and occasionally urge to pee when there's hardly anything to pee. Should I take cefexime 200mg for five days or will drinking plenty of water flush it out?
