Anyone had a LEEP procedure?

Hey y'all. I've been trying ttc for 6 months, at age 35! Doc says everything's OK for babymaking! YEAH...just keep trying. (Shouldn't complain DH and I have 5 kids together, but we would like one together...2nd marriage) However, I had an abnormal pap, with severe dysplasia (precancerous cells). Colposcopy and biopsy came back neg. for cancer (thank god), but cervix still has abnormal tissue and is very easy to bleed so doc wants to do LEEP. She says I can still get PG after procedure. Has anyone had one and if so, how soon did you ttc after recovery? Was anyone successful? Doc says no problem, but since this is new territory for me...well I just need to hear some good news stories!

Thanks,

Melissa

Hi! I had a LEEP done two and half years ago. I wasn't ttc then but I do remember bleeding for a good week after the procedure and not wanting any LM during that time. I wouldn't see why you wouldn't be able to TTC after you heal and feel up to it.

GL and don't worry too much about it - he's the DR and he apparently knows what he's talking about. HUGS - sunny :)
