Will cervical cancer lower the chance of getting pregnant?

While the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) should not affect a woman's ability to get pregnant, Having HPV can increase your risk of developing precancerous or cancerous cells in your cervix, which could affect both your fertility and your ability to carry a baby to term. If precancerous cells remain untreated, it can develop into cervical cancer. With this, there's a chance one will need a hysterectomy, or the removal of the uterus, which would rule out any future pregnancies. Thankfully, cervical cancer is very treatable when caught early.
