The Health Ministry highlights in Brazil around 50 thousands parturient are diagnosed with gestational syphilis, according these numbers, 12 thousands babies who lives births present congenital syphilis, therefore, it is important to have an appropriate prenatal with syphilis pregnant woman, because the probability is 40% percent to the pregnantunborn child who has diagnosed with syphilis and does not do any treatment stillborn or to develop some congenital issues, even the diagnoses are early or late. Consequently, this search aims to recognize the disease epidemiological profile in parturient that lives in Belém. The data were collected at SINAN/DATASUS at Belém zone, the capital city of Pará. The notifications were 1.504 syphilis pregnant cases and 840 congenital syphilis’ diagnose per year. It was identified the profile of 730 women who has gestational syphilis, the most of that wereage group 20 and 39 years old 68,5%, according to this percentage, 80,1% were brown skinned, 23,1% just have the incomplete elementary school or 32,7% have the high school and were considered 20,8% primary syphilis cases. We note the necessity of beginning prevent measure and actions to seek precocity with the pregnant to make the prenatal and mainly with those who has syphilis clinical evidence, to implement interventions to control this grievance.
