Cervical dysplasia is the growth of abnormal cells around the cervix (entrance to the uterus). Although this condition is not cancer there is a small risk that these cells could become cancerous. Sometimes no treatment is needed as the condition may improve by itself. If no treatment is needed, more frequent Pap smears should be done in the future to make sure the dysplasia is not getting worse. For more severe dysplasia, treatment involves removing the abnormal cells by freezing, laser therapy (a tiny beam of light) or electrical burning. Usually these treatments are very successful, but more frequent Pap smears should be done in the years following the treatment.
