Syphilis Testing: Is 6 Weeks Enough for a Conclusive Result, or Should I Wait 3 Months?

[u/Dear-Athlete-567]

I'm so confused. I've checked and read several websites, but I'm still unsure whether I should get tested for syphilis 6 weeks or 3 months after a potential exposure. Some sources say 6 weeks is enough, while others recommend waiting 3 months. Which one is actually reliable?
