HPV

At the age of fourteen I had procedure called LEPE Surgery performed. I was told that I needed the surgery  because I might develop cervical cancer.  What I would like to know is will that still put me at risk of developing cervical cancer. Also, I would like to know if when I decide to have children will I be able to deliver vaginally.
