Very few studies have evaluated the effectiveness of eating yogurt as a treatment for vaginal yeast infections. One small study indicated that eating 1 cup of yogurt — containing active cultures of lactobacillus — a day may reduce the frequency of recurrent yeast infections in some women.

Vaginal yeast infections are frequently caused by use of antibiotics, wearing underwear that does not allow air circulation to the crotch, wearing underpants to bed at night or using douches or other feminine “hygiene” sprays.
