Syphilis is screened for and diagnosed with syphilis testing. One of the most prevalent sexually transmitted diseases is syphilis (STDs). It is a bacterial infection that can be contracted by vaginal, oral, or anal intercourse with a carrier. Additionally, a pregnant woman can transmit it to her unborn fetus.
Typically, syphilis progresses in phases. Different indications and symptoms that might continue for weeks, months, or even years are associated with each stage. The initial indications and symptoms could be minimal. They may go unnoticed by you. So you might not even be aware that you have syphilis. The infection might spread to someone else from you.
Fluorescence treponemal antibody absorption (FTA-ABS) test, agglutination assay (TP-PA), Venereal Disease Research Laboratory (VDRL), rapid plasma reagin (RPR), and darkfield microscopy.
Testing for syphilis by checking your blood for specific antibodies, you can detect and diagnose syphilis. Your immune system produces antibodies, which are proteins, when it detects potentially hazardous chemicals in your body.
Two steps are typically involved in a syphilis test. A screening test to look for antibodies connected to having a syphilis infection is typically the initial step. However, other factors, including as autoimmune illnesses, other infections, and immunizations, may cause your immune system to produce these antibodies.
A syphilis test is typically a blood test. During a blood test, a medical professional will use a tiny needle to draw blood from a vein in your arm. Once the needle has been inserted, a little amount of blood will be collected into a test tube or vial. When the needle enters or leaves your body, it could cause some minor stinging.
A syphilis blood test does not require any particular preparation on your part. You might be asked to empty your urine and intestines before to the lumbar puncture.
No care is required.

Yes, syphilis is 100% curable. Early identification and diagnosis are key to effective and complete treatment. However, damage which has already occurred can’t be 100% reversed instead further damage can be prevented.
VDRL stands for Venereal Disease Research Laboratory test.
