Cranberry juice is a preventative for a UTI. If you have a UTI or suspect you might please visit a doctor for antibiotics to cure yourself of it before the infection has a chance to turn into a kidney infection!
If you have never had a yeast infection before, it is best to make sure you have one before treating by either visiting the doctor (he/she could also prescribe you with a pill to cure the infection) or purchasing a home infection detection kit (Vagisil and other companies produce these.)
Yeast infections can be treated several different ways, including over the counter treatments and home remedies. I have had a high success rate with the Monistat one day treatment, which is essentially a little capsule that is inserted into the vagina with an applicator. A panty liner should be laid down because the capsule will eventually melt and some will leak out.

Good luck!
