What is syphilis?
Syphilis is caused by bacteria known as Treponema
pallidum that can be passed on during sex.
3
How do I catch syphilis?
Syphilis can be passed from one person to another
during sex and by direct skin contact with
someone who has syphilis sores or rash. Its also
possible for a pregnant woman to pass the
infection to her unborn baby.

Syphilis can develop through three stages
  • primary syphilis
  • secondary syphilis
  • tertiary syphilis
  • Many people do not have any symptoms in the early
    stages. If you do get symptoms, you might notice
    the following.

5
Primary Syphilis
One or more sores on the genital area, or in the
mouth if you had oral sex. Often the sores are
painless The sores of first stage syphilis are
very infectious and may take two to six weeks to
heal
6
Secondary Syphilis
If untreated, the second stage usually occurs
some weeks later. The symptoms include a
painless rash that is not normally itchy. It can
spread all over the body and is often seen on the
palms of the hands and soles of the feet flat,
warty-looking growths on the vulva in women and
around the anus in both men and women (often
mistaken for genital warts) a flu-like illness,
tiredness and loss of appetite, with swollen
glands (this can last for weeks or months) white
patches on the tongue or roof of the mouth patchy
hair loss
7
Tertiary Syphilis
When syphilis remains untreated it sometimes goes
into another phase known as tertiary syphilis
after many years. This is when the syphilis
starts to cause very serious damage to the heart,
brain, eyes and nervous system. At this stage
syphilis can be life-threatening.
