Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Dear
Thanks for contacting Ayurveda with your health concern and following is/are necessary clarifications:

1. VDRL is a non treponemal test which will become negative after treatment but treponemal test like TPHA,MHA-TP,FTA-ABS remain positive forever since antibodies produced against syphilis remain in our body lifetime, which means that even if test comes positve (despite regular treatment/management) it usually indicates past Syphilis.

2. In Ayurveda I usually manage the disease on the line of "Firanga" Roga and Kapha Disorder, so if interested I can let you know about dietary regime and Herbal medicines.

Detailed Answer:
Dear
Thanks for reverting back

1. At present Penicillin is the drug of choice in early stages [primary/ secondary/tertiary] of syphilis but in later stages [latent] it is of limited use.
2. Practicing safe sex is the only ideal way to avid spreading the disease to sexual partner [or otherwise]
3. Regular clinical evaluation and serological monitoring is necessary for identifying any other Immunocompromised disease or opportunistic infection
4. You can check with the Doctor section of HCM where you will get all the necessary information of Doctors from XXXXXXX [along with reviews] and decide accordingly.
5. Medicine like: sarivadya assav,chopchiniadi churan,ameer ras,ras karpura, madhusnuhi rasayan,mahatikta ghrita along with Immunomodulators [Rasayan] are some of the result oriented preparation which can be taken after first consulting a qualified Ayurveda Practitioner near you.
