Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern.
In pregnancy, they cause changes in the urinary tract, and that makes women more more likely to get infections.
Treatment consist in antibiotics for 3-7 days.
Your symptoms should go away in 3 days.
Many common antibiotics such as amoxicillin, erythromycin, and penicillin, for example are considered safe for pregnant women.
Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I'll be glad to help, thanks!
