I am so glad it turned out well for you! As an aside, so long as the OB/GYN you see when you're pregnant knows about the LEEP, he or she will make a point of monitoring your cervix. That way, if it becomes too thin, the doctor can do a cervical stitch to prevent preterm delivery. A caring doctor will do everything to make sure you go home with a live baby.

I wish LEEP had gone well for me, but I had six months of complications. I did not look at the lab report, and the doctor did not tell me I had cervicitis. According to the medical guides I have read on LEEP, a doctor is not supposed to do that until cervicitis has been addressed. An already inflammed cervix + a hot metal wire with the highest risk of infection because of the burn wound + a body that heals slowly and is vulnerable to infection = disaster. Knowing what I now know, laser or even cryosurgery would have been better options because I had what is known as LGSIL (CIN I) with focal HGSIL (CIN II) in less than two quadrants. LEEP was wrong for my body.

I had the LEEP done under general anesthesia, which was the best way for me to have anything done to my body. But I wish my doctor had told me the full truth. This is why I always tell women to look at the lab report, get a full explanation of what they have and what all the treatment options are before doing anything.

I'm grateful you're healing so well.
