Abstract
One excisional treatment for CIN does not appear to affect subsequent fertility. Our study showed no delay in conception and no increased risk of problems conceiving in this group, even when controlling for the volume and depth of tissue removed. Women should be reassured by these results. Further work is required to evaluate the effect of cold knife cone biopsy and repeated LLETZ procedures on subsequent fertility.
