No: Hsv is a viral infection. It has no effect on your hormones, estrogen and Progesterone which control your menstrual cycle. The yeast infection may be due to using condom, sex practices, his ejaculate, any number of things that could have altered your vaginal flora. Best is to stay healthy, consider probiotic for vagina, get rest and exercise.
