If there is a suspicion of syphilis, your doctor is likely to request a VDRL test. Early symptoms that might lead to your doctor ordering this test include:

• A solitary, painless sore.
• Swelling in lymph nodes near the sore.
• A non-itchy skin rash.

In certain situations, your doctor may recommend a syphilis screening even in the absence of symptoms or specific reasons to suspect the infection. For instance, if you are pregnant, syphilis screening is typically conducted as a standard part of your prenatal care. When confronted with this situation, making the choice to get your VDRL test through PharmEasy is an advisable decision.

You don't need to be concerned about fasting or discontinuing any medications for the VDRL test. If your doctor has any special instructions, they'll inform you beforehand. In some cases, if your doctor suspects syphilis has affected your brain, they might perform additional testing on your spinal fluid alongside the blood test.
