Yes, you want to be looking for pro-biotic yoghurt - watch out for sugar content if you're prone to yeast infections as yeast love sugars, hint: often it's the low-fat versions that have more sugar.
It's the Lactobacillus Acidophilus you want from the yoghurt, this is similar to the 'good' bacteria you find in your vagina and it produces hydrogen peroxide to kill yeast. You need to make sure the yoghurt has live cultures, the yoghurt pot will tell you this so it's easy to identify.
Also look into pro-biotic pills, and other foods with live cultures such as saurkraut (homemade, not store-bought which are often pastured so killing the 'good' bacteria)

∙ 13y agoYoghurt doesn't cure yeast infection but you can put it on to make the itch more bearable. in that case use natural yoghurt without any flavor or sugar added. Then I suggest you go to the pharmacy and get medicine that cure it. Yoghurt remedy is a myth.
