Does having HSV-1 increase the risk of getting or giving Hepatitis C?

Only if you are one of the rare people who have HSV-1 genitally. If you have HSV-1 orally, as most people do, it has no effect on sexual intercourse or on disease transmission during sexual intercourse. Herpes only affects the area of the body where sores appear, and no other part.
