It depends on the severity of the STD, which STD, and how it has been treated.
Under slight-moderate cases, yes. There is chance you can still get pregnant. Under severe cases the chances are less likely. Example: I woman with AIDS is able to have children, yet it is likely that her child will be born with AIDS.
Talk to your doctor for more information.

Yes, but you can pass the STD on to the child in several ways. One of the venereal diseases, Syphilis I think, can cause blindness. If your doctor knows you have an STD they can plan to deliver the baby by C section to prevent complications from passing through the birth canal.

Usually, but which STD is important. Many STD's can be passed on to the child.
If it's a curable STD, then being treated is important.

It depends on the STD. Not many make your sterile, but a lot can be passed on to your child. Just be careful and if you get pregnant, make sure your Dr. knows what you have so he/she can treat you and your baby correctly.

Most yes, but it depends on which STD, each comes with it's own risk at birth e.g. women with herpes cannot normally have a vaginal birth, because it can cause blindness in the baby.
