I was diagnosed CIN 2, but after biopsy and colposcopy diagnose was CIN 1 and my gynecologist prescribe me 5-fluorouracil vaginal tablets..
I'm planning pregnancy and I'm afraid that this medication can cause sterility .. I have share experiences where CIN 1 wasn't treated at all, and my gyno prescribe me chemotherapy agent 5-FU (fluorouracil) ?!!! isn't it too much for my diagnose ??
I want to quit with this therapy because only 4 days after I use this drug I can feel side effects...I will contact my gyno of course, but I want to hear your opinion..
Thank you all !!

Get a SECOND/THIRD opinion! If YOU feel like stopping then by all means stop. It is YOUR body NOT your doctors!!!
Check out the medications benefits & side effects BEFORE using! Find a good online medical dictionary or web site that lists all medications! Make an informed decision.

I would recommend getting several more opinions and preferably from someone that does not share the same office of the gyn you currently see.
I would recommend that one of those opinions be from a gynecologic oncologist (a dr that treats cancers of the gynecologic area such as the cervix) to see what they have to say if you haven't already. They can give you a bit more information about the issue of pregnancy and cervical cancer.

I agree with the other answerers. Do get more opinions. I had Koilocytosis (Pre-CIN 1) and immediately went for a cone biopsy.
