Syphilis and Pregnancy: Risks and Complications for Mother and Baby
As a pregnant woman, I am deeply concerned about the risks and complications of syphilis during pregnancy. This sexually transmitted infection can pose serious threats to both mother and baby if left untreated. It may lead to miscarriage, stillbirth, or congenital syphilis in the baby, which can cause deformities and developmental delays. For the mother, it can result in complications during delivery and infections in other organs. It's crucial to get tested for syphilis during pregnancy and receive proper treatment to ensure the health and safety of both mother and baby.
