LEEP: Procedure, Purpose, Side Effects & Recovery

A LEEP procedure allows your provider to remove abnormal tissue on your cervix and test it for cancer. It’s used to diagnose and treat cervical dysplasia.

Outcomes are actually overwhelmingly positive, though thousands of women die from cervical cancer each year. I think much worse in US. Almost all because they didn’t get regular paps and it was caught too late. It’s the main reason you want to get those!!
