If a pregnant woman has an STD, it can cause serious health problems for the baby.</p> <p>If you have an STD caused by bacteria or parasites, your health care provider can treat it with antibiotics or other medicines. If you have an STD caused by a virus, there is no cure. Sometimes medicines can keep the disease under control. Correct usage of latex condoms greatly reduces, but does not completely eliminate, the risk of catching or spreading STDs.</p> <p >Centers for Disease Control and Prevention</p>|CSP2006:diseases due to or propagated by sexual contact.
