Varies: Most studies show a 30% to 50% recurrence risk for cin ii and cin iii. The most important thing for you to do is to be compliant with follow-up pap smears. Any recurrence will be caught early and can be successfully managed.

Need more info: Your recurrence rate is dependent on many personal conditions, including your age. With negative margins your recurrence rate is lower. You need to review this with your physician.
