Cone Biopsy And Pregnancy Posted: 11-09-04 06:40am
I recently had a cone biopsy done. It
was about 4 months ago. I just had my
first follow-up appointment for a pap and
am waiting for the results to see if
everything looks ok. My husband and I
want to have a baby. I have been away
from him due to business for 8 months now
and he is coming to see me in december.
We want to try to get pregnant when he is
here. Is fertility lowered after having
a cone biopsy and having dysplasia? I
read somewhere about the doctor saying it
is best to wait a year before getting
pregnant. Does anyone know if this is
true? My doctor didn't tell me this.
And will it be a high risk pregnancy?
Pease help.

These are all good questions for your
doc.There are several ways the biopsies
are done and I know that one way (where
several areas are biopsied,in cone shaped
sections) is supposed to be better for
later conception.As far as you being high
risk,that is for your doc to assess when
you are pregnant.Best of luck to you.Patty
