hi, its been two or more years since i went to a gynecologist and they told me i "could" get cervix cancer. they took a sample off and nothing bad was reported. I havent been back since i dont have insurance or $ to pay for it. I have had no problems "down there" since then. will this make it harder for me to have a child?

possibly but if your healthy no problem

If they did a biopsy and found no cancer cells, you should be fine. Usually they advise going back for a repeat pap test in 3-6 months just to be sure everything is OK. You should check with your local Department of Human Services. Many states offer free or reduced fee exams for women's health. My mother had cervical cancer right after my sister was born. The doctor told her if she wanted a third child she should become pregnant right away and that once the baby was delivered they would have to do a hysterectomy. My mother was satisfied with just two daughters so she chose to have the surgery right away. If the doctors told her she could get pregnant right away and she had been diagnosed with cervical cancer, I don't think you would have any problem getting pregnant just because of an abnormal pap test 2 years ago. You really need to get back to a gynecologist though. If you are considering becoming pregnant, you want to make sure you are healthy enough to carry, deliver, and raise a baby.

Not at all. When they did a biopsy there was nothing wrong... so there is nothing wrong! If you want to have kids this issue wont stop you.

I had precancerous cells on my cervix and they did a LEEP conization (they removed part of the outside of my cervix by scraping/burning it off). Depending on how much they remove, the cervix can become too thin to support the weight of a baby once it gets to be bigger and heavier. I didn't have problems conceiving or carrying both of my boys to full term.

no its not

no it doesn't make it harder to get pregnant

you are more likely to die or become infertile if you don't get yearly pap smears and develop cancer (because you are at risk you may need one every 3-6 months instead)

you can get free pap smears at the local health department or family planning
