A member asked:
How soon after primary syphillis treatment (penicillin shot) should i retest to see if it was effective?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
recommended at 3-6-12 months. The titer slowly gets lower but can remain positive for a very long time in most people. In about 20-30% it can normalize
