It just started a few hours ago and is increasing in itching and redness very rapidly. so i decided to put on some vitamin E body lotion on it, since it has vitamin E and wheat germ oil. And I drank 2 full cups of cranberry juice because yeast doesn't like acidic environment Do you think I can beat this before it gets to a real yeast infection?

If you are insisting on a home remedy, you need to get plain, unflavored yogurt with active cultures and use that. The active cultures are the good live bacteria that keep the yeasties in check. I would seriously suggest going to the drugstore and getting Monistat 1, though. If you get the kind with an applicator, save it, put it through the dishwasher or sterilize it somehow afterward, and save it so you can use it for the yogurt next time this happens. >

If I were you I would drink lots of water to flush you out, that works. The cranberry juice is also good. I would not put body lotion anywhere near it, it does not matter what it says on the label but you can bet there is some chemical in there somewhere. Instead just wash yourself with water and keep that area clean, also change your under ware a bit more often when you have this problem. This does work.
