Trichloroacetic Acid to Treat CIN

I came across an interesting study that claims that topical application of trichloroacetic acid was highly successful in sending CIN into remission. 

241 women participated in the study with CIN1, 2, and 3. High-grade lesions (CIN 2-3) were in remission in 80.3% of women (and 87.7% showed regression). For low-grade lesions, 82.3% of lesions were in remission. No major side effects were reported, besides bleeding and discharge for 2 weeks.

This study shows a promising alternative treatment for women who have CIN. 

It shocks me how many alternative treatments are available for CIN, yet doctors refuse to treat their patients any way other than standard surgical procedures.
