Just for info would it be no problem being pregnant and having mild dysplasia? I think not but would like to hear feedback if any has

I had mild dysplasia during my pregnancy. They didn't do anything about it until after I delivered.

When I found I was pregnant I also found I had an abnormal pap smear, then discovered that I had more than just "mild" displasya. I had severe. I had a biopsy ran by a cancer specialist and it was slow moving enough to go full term with no problems. After I delivered more tests were ran and I had a hysterectomy. There were no problems at all with or during the pregnancy at all. No worries.

was the hysterectomy performed due to the severe dysplasia??

Yes, it was. It would have developed into full-blown cancer so it was best to remove the cervix and the uterus both. I was fine with it and everything went very well.

Mild dysplasia during pregnancy is usually not a problem as long as it remains mild dysplasia. If you're positive for high-risk HPV then you run the likelyhood of developing moderate or severe dysplasia or worse. Doctors will usually not treat any type of dysplasia during pregnancy because of the high risk of bleeding and because more than likely they will not be able to remove all the lesions, especially in the endocervical canal. Unless invasive cancer is suspected they will wait until 8-12 weeks post delivery to treat.

The chances of developing invasive cancer are remote but it does happen. Those women who do develop invasive cancer but want more children are then faced with having to go through a hysterectomy to treat the cancer which is quite unfortunate.

My doctor has had patients who developed invasive cancer during pregnancy and he says it's one of the worst decisions his patients are ever faced with. Depending on the progression of the cancer and its aggressiveness, women are forced to make decisions about their health, lives, the baby...to go to full term or not....it's really difficult.

I had medium dysplasia, I went full term had a healthy little girl whose now 1 1/2. I'm at severe dysplasia now and have to get a leep done tomorrow morning..
