Syphilis is a common sexually transmitted disease with strong infectivity, and the main pathogen is Treponema pallidum. After the onset of the disease, patients may experience abnormal local itching, which is extremely harmful and requires active treatment. What should I do if I have syphilis at 30 weeks of pregnancy?
Pregnant women who are diagnosed with syphilis at 30 weeks of pregnancy should pay attention to timely and reasonable treatment if the pregnancy is not terminated. Syphilis serum values should be checked every month during pregnancy. If the serum titer of a pregnant woman does not decrease within 3 months, or if it does not decrease by 2 dilutions but increases by 2 dilutions, timely repeated treatment is necessary.
Pregnant women infected with syphilis need appropriate treatment during pregnancy, which can effectively control the condition and reduce the incidence rate of newborns to only about 2.2%. It is important to not be too nervous and to seek comprehensive treatment under the guidance of a doctor to prevent direct infection between mother and baby.
It should be noted that if the condition of the pregnant woman does not improve after treatment, it can easily have a significant impact on the health of the fetus, leading to abnormalities such as fetal malformation, stillbirth, and miscarriage. So in this case, doctors may also recommend abortion. Pregnant women should actively cooperate with treatment and also take care of themselves after treatment to promote physical recovery.
