First, LEEP does not treat cancer; it treats cervical dysplasia, or abnormal cells that may develop into cancer.
It is possible to develop dysplasia again after a LEEP. Taking steps towards improving the health of your immune system can help: don't smoke, eat well, get enough rest and exercise, avoid excessive suntanning or binge drinking. Protect yourself when having sexual intercourse by avoiding having many partners and by using condoms. Consider getting the HPV immunization series. All of these things can help your body to take care of any abnormal cells that may develop.

Why do you have to wait three months for a re-test after a LEEP procedure for cervical dysplasia cin 3?
The purpose of the LEEP is to essentially "shave" off the bad cells, and cause new ones to grow. The time is needed to help the cervix heal from the procedure, and give the cervix a chance to grow healthy cells.
What if the biopsy from the LEEP procedure sHow is cancer?
If you're having a LEEP, you probably already had a cervical biopsy that did not show cancer. It is unlikely that the LEEP biopsy will show cancer. In the unlikely event that it does, your health care provider will talk to you about appropriate options, which, again, are likely to be minimal since you were considered a LEEP candidate (i.e. thought not to have cancer) in the first place. Please call your health care provider today to put your mind at ease regarding this question.
