Does having herpes means you are likely to have hpv too or is there no relation between the two? thanks!

Passed same way: The fact is all sexually transmitted diseases share a common issue.They are passed during sexual activity. A person can be infected with one or several at the same time and pass none or all at a given sexual encounter. Herpes is a different germ than HPV. Testing for STD's varies with those under consideration. No single test includes all at once.

STD's have friends: Where there is one sexually transmitted disease, there often is another. That doesn't necessarily mean that one disease is related to another disease, but more likely means that a person who catches one disease is doing activities or doing things with certain people that lead to the catching of more than one STD. So, if one disease is found, always look for others.
