Syphilis Testing in Bali — VDRL & TPHA Explained
Last updated: Oct 2025 • Return to STD Testing Hub
Why syphilis testing matters
Syphilis can be silent at first but cause serious health problems if untreated. Many tourists and expats in Bali choose routine screening after risky encounters.
VDRL vs TPHA
VDRL
Venereal Disease Research Laboratory
Screening test that detects non-specific antibodies. Can be positive in early or active infection.
TPHA
Treponema pallidum hemagglutination assay
Confirmatory test, more specific for syphilis antibodies.
When to test
Best performed 3–6 weeks after exposure. If you test earlier and results are negative, repeat later as advised.
Window period matters: Testing too early may give false negatives.
