The genital secretions of syphilis patients contain syphilis spirochetes, and transmission can occur if unprotected sex is practiced.
The only source of syphilis is the patient, whose skin lesions, semen, and blood contain syphilis spirochetes. The main mode of transmission of the disease is sexual. If the patient has unprotected sex with another person, the virus can be transmitted to the partner through genital secretions.
For patients, it is important to use condoms during sex. They must be worn throughout and other forms of sexual intercourse such as anal and oral sex must be avoided, which may also trigger transmission.
In addition, the transmission of syphilis spirochetes also includes mother-to-child transmission and blood transmission, etc. Targeted protective measures should be taken to avoid the occurrence of transmission. If you are suffering from syphilis, please consult the doctor actively to avoid delaying your condition.
