Hi,
I am a 31 year old single mother of 2 and recently had an abnormal pap smear for the first time. I just had a colposcopy done with 5 biopsies taken. 3 of the 5 biopsies came back moderate and 2 were severe with gland involvement. The doctor has suggested a Leep procedure. What does it mean when it says Gland Involvement with the severe dysplasia? What exactly does severe dysplasia mean? Should I go get a 2nd opinion on what treatment method I should have? Please help.
