It depends on what STD you have.
For example, penicillin will work to cure a syphilis infection, but won't work to cure a chlamydia or gonorrhea infection.
Antibiotics are used to cure bacterial STDs such as syphilis, chlamydia or gonorrhea. Antibiotics will NOT work on viral STDs like herpes, HIV, hepatitis, and HPV. Viral STDs have NO cure. There are treatments with antiviral medications, but there is NO cure.
If you have a STD or think you might have one go to a doctor and have them test you. They will be able to properly diagnose you and offer treatments or cures. Good luck!

Alli answered very well, it all depends on what STD you have. And you need to use safer sex and use a barrier method of protection for oral sex as well as genital sex.
When you go for treatment, ask for some educational material on how to protect yourself and your partner, since it sounds like you could use a bit more info than you have.
Also, there is no STD that can be cured with home remedies.
