First of all, the skin and mucous membrane of syphilis patients contain Treponema pallidum. In the sexual contact with syphilis patients, if the skin or mucous membrane is slightly damaged, it can get the disease. Very few can be transmitted through blood transfusion or other means. Acquired syphilis (acquired syphilis) early syphilis patients are the source of infection, more than 95% of them are transmitted through dangerous or unprotected sexual behavior, a small number of them are transmitted through kissing, blood transfusion, contaminated clothing and so on. Fetal syphilis is transmitted by pregnant women suffering from syphilis. If pregnant women with primary, secondary and early latent syphilis, the probability of transmission to the fetus is quite high.

Secondly, pregnant women suffering from syphilis should be given effective treatment in time to prevent syphilis infection to the fetus. Unmarried syphilis infection, the best cure after marriage, this we should be particularly clear, to prevent serious consequences.

Pregnant women are infectious even if they have asymptomatic latent syphilis.
