Can I get dysplasia again after a LEEP surgery?

Hi, Anon.

Thanks for reaching to EmpowHER.

*LEEP works very well to treat abnormal cell changes on the cervix.
If all of the abnormal tissue is removed, you will not need more surgery. In some studies, doctors were able to remove all the abnormal cells in almost every case. But abnormal cells may come back in the future.*

You can read more about in the link I've provided. Always speak to your doctor about your individual risk of reoccurrence. I hope this information helps.
