See doctor: There would be the possibility of contracting and STD - you need to see your doctor for testing, diagnosis, and treatment if needed.

Unlikley related: BV is linked to an imbalance of “good” and “harmful” bacteria that are normally found in a woman's vagina. BV is associated with having multiple male partners, a new sex partner, douching, lack of condom use, and lack of vaginal lactobacilli. Yeast infection can affect any woman and is not considered STD.
