No, a biopsy is not considered preventative care. It is a diagnostic procedure used to examine tissue samples for signs of disease, such as cancer, after a potential issue has already been identified. Preventative care focuses on measures taken to prevent diseases before they occur, such as vaccinations and screenings.

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.
