Please help

I was just recently diagnosed with genital herpes. before that I was diagnosed with BV for the 1st time and now I feel I have it again. is having BV all the time a symptom of genital herpes?

Yes, bv and genital herpes are related

I really think they are not related. How did you arrive at this decision? Genital herpes is a virus and bv is bacteria that shoud not be in the vagina that makes women ill.
