Syphilis is uncommon in most developed countries, and since you used a condom, your risk is really low.

To get syphilis, your partner would have to have a syphilis sore to be contagious.

If you ever got syphilis, they have a treatment protocol for people who are allergic to penicillin, so you could still be treated successfully.

You can test for syphilis at 6 weeks.

Thank you so much i dont know how to thank you .
So do you recommend any STD test for me ??
My wife will be back in few weeks from her country ×_×.
We cant answer that! We can only give you the facts and its your choice what to do with them. In your case....

You had protected sex which reduces the risk of syphilis. Can it still transmit with condom use? Yes but only when there's a visible sore. Is it likley that you caught it? No it is not.
Hi
Thank you all
I just get RPR syphilis test after 28 days , i know that i should test at 6 weeks and above but i cant wait .
How accurate its ¿
Considering that you had a condom on, you've had no symptoms, and it was low risk to start with, it's pretty accurate. It's not 100%, but really, you are worrying for such little risk here.
So when can i confirm it ?
Also i have an other question, if i had contract hpv out of my pines can i infect  a women with hpv that cause cervical cancer??
Sorry for dump questions *_*
You can confirm it at 6 weeks, if you must. That's next week.

Yes, if you get HPV, you can infect women with the type of HPV that causes cervical cancer IF you got that kind of HPV. Again, though, please remember that you used a condom, which offers significant protection against HPV.

If you and/or your wife have had other partners before marriage, there is a chance you had it prior to marriage. If you haven't been married long, either one of you could have infected the other. Seriously, this is not something to worry about, even if you were both virgins prior to marriage.

The chances for anything are very low.
So just a last question i know it will change nothing .
But how did hpv rich to cervical if i didn't get it on the pines ?
Because i remember the condom was intact until the pines base .

Thank you verry much ,    
Because HPV infects the entire genital area, including the skin around the penis. If you have HPV, and your skin touches her skin, it becomes a genital infection, and travels through her genital area.

Because when you use condoms, it protects a lot of skin that reaches her cervix directly, it reduces the chances significantly.

So you know how when you kiss someone, even briefly, who has a cold, and then that germ travels from your mouth to your mouth, and your nose, and you then get sick? That's sort of how it happens with HPV - it doesn't have to be direct contact with the cervix to get it on the cervix.
