What is Syphilis?
Syphilis is one of the most common STDs found in the United States. Syphilis is caused by a bacterium called Treponema pallidum which infects both men and women.
Syphilis is transmitted through vaginal, anal, or oral sex. Sexually active young people get infected by Syphilis easily when having unprotected sex or when having sex with multiple partners. A woman having Syphilis can pass it to her child in a condition known as Congenital Syphilis. Congenital Syphilis can cause severe abnormalities or even death to the baby.
Syphilis cannot be transmitted through casual contact like sharing food or drinks, kissing, hugging, holding hands, coughing, sneezing, or sitting on the toilet seat.
What are the symptoms of Syphilis?
A syphilis-infected person does not show any symptoms for several weeks even after the infection or until it spreads to other body parts. This particular disease progresses in multiple stages and the symptoms differ accordingly.

- Enlarged lymph nodes in the groin

Why should you test for Syphilis?
Many people believe they don’t need to get tested for Syphilis unless they are exhibiting symptoms, but that’s not the case. Every sexually active person should be tested regularly for Syphilis and other STIs, even if they don’t notice any symptoms. Syphilis is highly-transmissible and is ranked number #1 in active STD. case types. As many as 70% of STIs present mild symptoms or no symptoms at all and can have serious, long-term health consequences if left untreated. Even if a particular STI is not a serious risk to your health, it is very likely a serious risk to your partner.
Many STIs, including Syphilis, have more dangerous consequences for women than for men, especially pregnant women. Some can cause complications with pregnancy, including early delivery, birth defects, and stillbirth. For this reason, you should never assume that you do not have a Syphilis or other STD simply because you are not experiencing symptoms.
