The LEEP (Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure) is a surgical procedure used to remove abnormal tissue from the cervix. It is commonly used to treat pre-cancerous conditions such as cervical dysplasia, which is an abnormality of the cells of the cervix. During the procedure, a thin, low-voltage electrified wire loop is used to cut away the abnormal tissue. The LEEP is often preferred over other procedures because it is quick and easy to perform, and there is minimal risk of scarring or other complications. The procedure begins with the patient being placed on an examination table and given a local anesthetic. A speculum is inserted into the vagina to expose the cervix. The doctor then uses a colposcope, which is a magnifying instrument, to examine the cervix. Once the abnormal tissue is identified, the doctor will use the loop electrode to cut away the affected tissue. The tissue is then sent to a lab for testing to confirm the presence of abnormal cells. Once the procedure is complete, the patient may experience some mild discomfort, such as cramping or bleeding. This can usually be managed with over-the-counter medications. It is important to follow your doctor’s instructions for at-home care, such as avoiding sexual intercourse, using sanitary pads, and avoiding douching or using tampons. The LEEP procedure is a safe and effective method of treating pre-cancerous conditions of the cervix.
