Generally they tell you to rest for about a week, but it varies from woman to woman & doctor to doctor. I personally had a cerclage put in, went off bed rest, after a few weeks it began to slip out I went into labor & had to have a second cerclage placed in emerency surgery to save my son. I then spent three weeks in the hospital and the remainder of my pregnancy on strict bed rest.....only able to shower every other day and only allowed to get out of bed & sit in a chair for 20 min per day. This went on for 16 weeks!

How much is a woman at risk for pregnancy problems percentage-wise if she had a cone biopsy and LEEP done several years ago and what are the typical types of problems that occur?

Sometimes, women with these procedures will have problems maintaining pregnancies due to "incompetent cervix" or "cervical shortening". Sometimes, doctors will place a stitch in the cervix called a cerclage which helps the cervix stay closed. If you do experience any of these, your doctor will most likely put you on bed rest either at home or in the hospital in more severe cases where a pregnancy is threatened. Unfortunately, I cannot give you a percentage. Just talk with your doctor about these issues if you become pregnant.
