High Risk HPV & Pregnancy

0 Recommendations

Hello, I just recently found out that I have High-Risk HPV. They did my colposcopy and biopsy. I had 3 grey spots he said. I got the call yesterday that I will have to go into the hospital for removal of the spots. Is this going to be painful? Will I be under? and We have been trying for months to get pregnant just started clomid this month right when I find this out. How will this effect my chances of getting pregnant and how soon will we be able to start trying again after this surgery? I am very scared!

Surgery Clomid HPV Pregnancy

Any responsible doctor will tell you to wait about 6 months after surgery before getting pregnant (although sometimes your body doesn't listen), as you want to be able to have a follow up Pap and HPV test and make sure all is clear or that the disease has gone dormant, as pregnancy can have a weird reaction on HPV. Sometimes it shuts it down and other times it causes it to spread. It really depends upon whether you have squamous-based cells or adenocarcinoma cells and how advanced.

As for the clomid - I would talk to your doctor about the safety of using it during all this and if it will in any way cause issue with lowering your immune system and helping HPV further take root. I had reservations about it, but that may be just my own ignorance.

As for the grey spots and going under. It all really depends on what type of surgical procedure they perform. Most LEEPs, they will keep you awake. If they do other forms of surgery, it may require twilight sleep or full anethesia. It all depends on where they operate and what type of surgery they feel will suit you best.

Hang in there!
