Probably none: The biggest risk of cryosurgery that early in pregnancy would be to induce a spontaneous miscarriage, and that risk is small. If you have not miscarried by a week afterwards, i would doubt any meaningful problems related to it.

Pregnancy: The risk was at the time. Since you did not miscarry. Your baby should be fine.

Colposcopy showed CIN II. Last year it was CIN I. All other Paps were clear. Dr wants me to get LEEP or Laser. Is it crucial I do this now, or can I wait to see if it clears on it's own over the next 6-12 months? Worried for hurting pregnancy chances
