Do STDs affect the brain?

Syphilis certainly does. Here is the last stage of syphilis:

Tertiary (Late)

This stage begins when symptoms from the secondary stage disappear. Syphilis isn’t contagious at this point, but the infection has started to affect your organs. This can lead to death. Symptoms of tertiary syphilis may include:

Problems controlling muscle movements

Numbness

Vision problems (you may start going blind)

Dementia
