If a girl has gotten close enough to a guy to get pregnant by him, then how likely is it she's also caught any STD's he might have as well?
I'm assuming that it's easier to catch an STD in general then get pregnant?
I'm also assuming that it's easier for a woman to get an STD off a guy then a guy off a girl for the fact a woman has a much larger opening into the outside world then a man does?

If you are concerned that you may have contracted an STD then it is best to make your way to a GUM clinic or your Doctors to get checked out.
Male or female, if you are having sex without condoms with someone who is infected then the risk is there regardless of your 'opening'.
Yep, as Summer says, best not to assume
It's really good that you're asking these questions. Check out the sexual health section of TheSite.org to get yourself more clued-up - http://www.thesite.org/sexandrelationships/safersex/sexualhealth
There's quite a lot of info about getting checked and specific STIs, I think a common issue for many of us is not being aware of what we don't know.
Do what helen and summer raindrops said, it makes sense.
