Hi! I had a LEEP procedure a year and a half ago and my doctor says that I have cervical stenosis and my husband and I are getting ready to try for a baby via artificial insemination and my doc says I need to be dialated first becasue of the stenosis. Will I be able to get pregnant easier and is this a pianful procedure and what should I expect? Thank you

I once had a procedure done when my doctor dilated me and then went in my uterus and took a sample and a couple days later my husband and I had sex and (this happened in October 05) I got pregnant but I miscarried.. Thats just me I have a history of miscarriage's... So in result me and my husband was trying for about 3 yrs with no luck and then when I got the procedure done i got pregnant! So maybe your chances are good like mine was..

Thank you, that helps a little bit! Was it painful getting dialated like that?

To me it was.. Im not gonna lie to you... I threw up from it but they didnt numb the area.. I want to get it done again so that maybe I can conceive again..

OH NO! They said they wouldn't numb me either. I wonder why!!! What did it feel like and for how long? I thought you were pregnant? Good luck to you too! They did say of someone else that had it done and it opens them up some and they got pregnant too pretty quickly!

Wow i dont know how to explain the pain... Lets see it was like a real sharp pain and i think it only took a couple minutes but when i got home i took a pain pill and went to sleep and when i woke up the pain was gone.. i must have gotten pregnant 3 days after the procedure because that is when we had sex and then miscarried in dec 05.. so i would go through the pain again to conceive if i had to
Good luck to you also..keep in touch ***@****

I will keep in touch. Thanks for the information! yes, it will be worth it if it means a pregnancy. They are wanting me to do the procedure on the 4th day of my period but I should start any day now so we will see....
