Not down the loo it will block the pipes. The Syphilis germs stay in you body until you get treated. So even if you have no sores or other signs of Syphilis, it can still be damaging you inside. If you don't get treated, you can spread Syphilis to anyone you have sex with. Having regular men's and women's health checks and using condoms will keep you healthy and strong.
Early treatment fixes Syphilis up really well.
