Is using Chemstrips a good way to detect a urinary tract infection? What are the diagnostic criteria for a urinary tract infection? What do you think of Cystoplus, which is available over-the-counter in pharmacies?

Using Chemstrips is not a reliable way to detect a urinary infection because they are not specific enough. Their results may not accurately diagnose an infection. It is better to consult a doctor who can consider various factors, such as symptoms and overall health, to accurately diagnose a urinary infection. As for Cystoplus, there is limited evidence of its effectiveness in treating urinary infections, so it may not be the best choice.
