Ok, so my GYN called me back after I had my colposcopy about 2 weeks ago, and it confirmed I have moderate dysplasia, and inflamation. She told me I was going to have to get the LEEP done. They are going to put me under for this but she told me the procedure would last about 5 minutes. I'm not so nervous about it because i've gone under before. I just wanted to know if I could expect any pain afterwards or bleeding or anything like that.
Thanks for those who respond back!

I had the LEEP and I had almost no bleeding after the procedure which I found strange. I had no cramping, just a few days of lightly pink colored blood, and some darker looking stuff which again was light.
i was not put out for the procedure but they did give me something to calm me down in the form of a little white pill placed in my mouth. I was awake for the entire procedure.
The only slight pain was when she was inserting the numbing medication into my cervix.
Good luck, and we all pray that everything will be ok!

I had my leep and was awake and had no medication other than the numbing shot...which wasnt half as bad as I thought it would be! I had a good amount of cramping for about a week (just like a bad period) and bleeding for 2 weeks, then a charcoal-ish discharge for another 2 (which I assume was due to the cautizeration). All in all, it wasnt awful but it wasnt the best either. It is quick, I will tell you that! I promise, you WILL be fine! Keep your head up!
