Should i be worried about getting a leep (loop electrosurgical excision procedure)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends...: No with respect to the main side effect of LEEP or other cervical conization procedures, which is spontaneous miscarriage or preterm labor, assuming you are not looking to be pregnant in near future. Yes with respect to the fact that if you are having cervical dysplastic changes at age 50, the chances of it recurring in future may be higher than someone in their 30s
