Fetal loss possible: Fetal loss approaches 40 % if acquired during or the few years prior to pregnancy. If acquired > 4yrs prior to pregnancy and not treated, the disease may be dormant and less likely to pass.

No, but....: Syphilis does not cause miscarriage, but it is a serious infection that can lead to permanent issues and needs treatment immediately. It is also important for your partner to be treated.
