A member asked:

Cin1 positive of hpv16. doctor recommended laser treatment for removal. is this the right decision?isn't it mild and will disappear without treatment?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

NO LASER FOR CIN 1: Don't let your doctor do a procedure on your cervix for CIN 1. It is a localized, self limiting infection that only needs to be followed carefully with pap smears or HPV at least every 6 months. Again, a laser is not indicated.
