A member asked:
I had a biopsy which came with high grade results. gyn wants to do an leep. is this necessary or because of my age (22) it could go away on its own?

Yes it's necessary : For high grade dysplasia of the cervix does not go away on it's own. LEEP will remove the affected area under local anesthesia with 90% cure rate. Untreated, high grade dysplasia can lead to cervical cancer
