Women who have been screened positive (positive with high risk HPV or visual inspection with acetic acid / VIA) in a screen-and-treat strategy. 4. Women with abnormal cytology (High-grade Squamous Intra-epithelial Lesion / HSIL) 5. Transformation zone (TZ) is fully visible, whole lesion is visible and it does not extend into the endocervix, or the lesion is type 1 TZ; or the lesion is type 2 TZ where the probe tip will achieve complete ablation of the SCJ epithelium, i.e., where it can reach the upper limit of the TZ.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: • Women with obvious growth on cervix. • Women with high index of suspicion of invasive cancer cervix . • Women with lesion occupying more than two quadrants of cervix or with vaginal and/or endocervical extension. • Lesion is type 3 TZ (TZ is not fully visible because it is endocervical); or lesion is type 2 TZ where the SCJ is out of reach of the probe tip. • Pregnant women • Women with severe debilitating disease • Women with history of pelvic irradiation

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame

Timepoint: 1,3,6 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To examine and compare the effect of Thermal ablation and LEEP on overall sexual satisfaction and other specific aspects of sexual function in women in CIN 2 & 3.Timepoint: 6months
