LEEP procedure

Sunshineeyes · 10-09-2009, 09:11 PM

i am just wondering if any other ladies on this forum is experiecing or has expeirenced cervical cancer/ cervical dysplasia?
i have gone through 3 biopsys, a cryosurgery and as of today the LEEP procedure. all which have been done in the hospital in the out- patient area.
my main concern is, will i still be able to have children. will i be able to carry a baby to full term? are there any other complications that i have to look out for? other than the ones my dr has already told me about. i really need some info from other ladies about this that has gone through this. it would help me out a lot!

Hi sunshine, you can have babies without any problem because the procedures that have been done on you do not damage cervix extensively, and you can carry the baby full-term.

The only procedure which causes cervical instability is cone-biopsy that can cause cervical stenosis later on. If your dysplasia is controlled..i.e. your 3 consecutive biopsies have come normal, then there is no risk to your for opting for pregnancy.

Just for your information, pregnancy neither promotes, not aggravates a pre-existing cervical dysplasia or even cancer.

Sorry, I wanted to say, 3 consecutive pap smears have come normal..not biopsies..don;t know how to edit the previous post, so, writing it up here.
