Who is this surgery for?
- Abnormal Pap smear results indicating pre-cancerous changes (e.g., ASC-US, LSIL, HSIL).
- Confirmed diagnosis of Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) from a colposcopy biopsy.
- Presence of cervical polyps causing bleeding or discharge.
- Suspected or visible benign growths like nabothian cysts or condyloma (warts).
- Persistent inflammation or infection of the cervix that does not respond to medication.
- As part of the diagnostic workup for unexplained postcoital or intermenstrual bleeding.
How to prepare
- Complete a pre-operative consultation and medical evaluation with your gynaecologist.
- Disclose all medications, especially blood thinners like aspirin or warfarin, as you may need to stop them temporarily.
- Avoid sexual intercourse, douching, or using tampons for 24-48 hours before the procedure.
- Schedule the procedure for a time when you are not menstruating.
- Arrange for someone to drive you home after the surgery, as sedation may be used.
- Follow fasting instructions if general anesthesia is planned (typically nothing to eat or drink for 6-8 hours prior).
Risks & possible complications
- Bleeding or spotting, which is common but usually mild.
- Infection at the surgical site, requiring antibiotics.
- Rare risk of damage to nearby structures like the bladder or bowel.
- Cervical stenosis (narrowing of the cervical canal), which may affect future menstrual flow or fertility.
- Incomplete excision, potentially requiring a repeat procedure.
- Reaction to anesthesia (if used).
- Future pregnancy-related risks like cervical incompetence or preterm labor, though modern techniques minimize this.
Recovery & hospital stay
- Expect light bleeding or a watery, pinkish discharge for 1-3 weeks; use sanitary pads, not tampons.
- Mild cramping is normal; over-the-counter pain relievers (as advised by your doctor) can help.
- Avoid sexual intercourse, douching, swimming, and heavy lifting for 4-6 weeks to allow healing.
- You can typically return to non-strenuous work and daily activities within 1-2 days.
- Attend all scheduled follow-up appointments to monitor healing and review pathology results.
- Contact your doctor immediately if you experience heavy bleeding (soaking a pad per hour), severe pain, fever, or foul-smelling discharge.

Sarah Smith, a 32-year-old elementary school...
Sarah Smith, a 32-year-old elementary school teacher, had been trying to conceive with her husband for over a year. During her routine fertility workup, her gynecologist discovered an abnormal Pap smear result showing high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL). A subsequent colposcopy and biopsy confirmed a CIN 3 lesion on her cervix, a pre-cancerous condition. Her doctor, Dr. Evans, explained that while the lesion was not cancer, it had a high risk of progressing and needed to be removed. He recommended a Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP), a type of excision, to precisely remove the abnormal tissue while preserving as much healthy cervix as possible for future fertility. Sarah was terrified, fearing both the procedure and its potential impact on her dreams of having a child. The LEEP was performed in the clinic under local anesthesia. It was uncomfortable and emotionally draining, but quick. Her recovery involved light cramping and discharge for a few weeks. The pathology report came back clear, showing all abnormal cells had been removed with clean margins. The emotional relief was profound. While she and her doctor will monitor her closely with more frequent Pap smears, Sarah feels a heavy weight has been lifted and is cautiously optimistic about resuming her journey to start a family.
