If you've had chicken pox (VZV) when you were younger, does it protect against herpes 1/2?

Question

I had chicken pox when I was younger, and I've heard that VZV and HSV 1/2 are related. I have antibodies for VZV (through contraction) but none for HSV 1/2 (found out through test). If you've acquired chicken pox, does it protect in any way at all from hsv 1/2? In any way at all?

Answer 1

i had chicken pocks as a kid as well and ended up with HSV1 on my mouth and genitals as well as HSV2 on my genitals. so i don't believe in the immunity theories.

Answer 2

Had CP as a child. Have HSV2 as an adult. No immunity
