What is a Syphilis test?
A Syphilis test requires a simple blood draw, like a traditional HIV test. If the result is positive, the test gives a ratio that relates to the amount of antibodies in your blood.If you are symptomatic when you go to your doctor, it is very important to be treated immediately because you are most infectious while symptomatic. If you test positive but are not showing any symptoms, it is still very important to get treated.
