Q: Coldknife/cone Biopsy

Hi ! I am a 19 yrs old female, and just wondering if there was anybody out there who could help me out. I was diagnosed with severe dysplasia, the stage just before cancer. Back in june, I underwent a cone biopsy procedure. The doctor removed part of my cervix. The margins came back and appeared to be clear. Recently, the results from my 3 month pap smear came back and it appeared that I had first grade dysplasia. I am scared and confused. My biggest fear in life is infertility. I had never planned on having children, but having someone tell you that you cant is hard to accept. I know that my chances of conceiving are lowered, but I was just wondering if there is anyone out there who might have any advice or personal experience. My health is so important to me, I just don't know what to do!

I Get Scared Too
Hi scared and confused Smile I am not really replying to give you an answer to your questions, but more to let you know that I understand how you feel. I am 22 and i'm going through the exact same thing right now; my doctor also said I have severe displasia. They took a biopsy and some more cultures. I am very scared and confused and worried that not only will I maybe not be able to have children, but how will I deal with learning to live with hpv? I'm single (the guy I contracted hpv from was the only guy I had ever slept with) and now I will have to tell any man I want to be intimate with about the hpv and that he will get it from me. I'm afraid if any guy knows I have hpv, well, who would voluntarily want hpv? And I don't want to give it to anyone.... And also how I will deal if my test results come back and I have cervical cancer? I know someway, anyone in our position, is forced to deal somehow. But, I understand, i'm just as confused and I get scared too!

Scared and confused too!
