... Dear Dr. Papageorghiou, The recent study by Wisniak et al. [1] titled 'Fertility and Miscarriage Incidence After Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia Treatment by Thermal Ablation: A Cohort Study' provides important insights into the impact of thermal ablation (TA) on fertility and miscarriage rates in a resource-constrained setting. As a clinician and researcher specialising in reproductive health, I commend the authors for addressing a critical gap in understanding the safety of TA in the context of cervical cancer prevention. ...
... Wisniak et al. [1] have laid the groundwork for understanding the role of TA in cervical cancer prevention and its impact on reproductive health. By addressing the highlighted considerations, future research can not only validate these findings but also expand clinical relevance, enhancing maternal and child health outcomes in diverse settings. ...
