Can I have children if I have syphilis?

Because everyone's physique is different, different symptoms may occur after contracting the same disease, which in turn leads to different treatments. Sometimes, people of different genders suffer from the same disease and the adverse effects are different, such as syphilis. So, if a woman is infected with syphilis, can she still have children? The following article will briefly introduce the dangers of pregnancy with syphilis.

The adverse effects that may occur after contracting syphilis in men and women are different. Because women have the need to get pregnant and have children, if they get syphilis and get pregnant, they will also cause some serious harm, mainly including the following two aspects.

1. Miscarriage. After a woman has syphilis, during pregnancy, there is close blood communication between her body and the fetus. The nutrients needed for the growth and development of the fetus must be obtained from the pregnant mother, which is why women need to supplement nutrients immediately during pregnancy. In such a case, the Treponema pallidum in the woman's blood will also enter the fetus. If the fetus is too young, it may cause miscarriage, which will not only cause the death of the fetus, but also seriously affect the health of the woman and even affect the reproductive function of the female patient.

2. Causes congenital syphilis. If the female patient is indeed infected with syphilis when the fetus is relatively large, then the fetus can be born safely at this time because it has developed more completely. However, the fetus is still inevitably infected with syphilis, which will cause the fetus to have congenital syphilis, resulting in bone damage, skin and mucous membrane damage, and feeding difficulties, and may even cause the baby to die shortly after birth.

Based on the detailed explanation of syphilis pregnancy in the previous article, most readers already have a general understanding of the harm of syphilis pregnancy. In summary, it is very dangerous for women to become pregnant during the syphilitic period. It will not only affect the quality of the fetus, but also harm their own physical and mental health. Therefore, for female syphilis patients, it is best to get pregnant after syphilis is cured to avoid adverse effects.
