A member asked:
Sorry, i wasn't clear. if you have negative rpr 3 months after sexual activity you're concerned about, is that conclusive proof you didn't get syph?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pretty sure: 3 months later, an active syphilis infection should generate an antibody response and a positive RPR/VDRL. Please use a condom with each sexual encounter. It will save you stress and blood pressure points.
