Endometrial biopsy

An endometrial biopsy is a medical procedure used to collect a small sample of the lining of the uterus (endometrium) for examination. It helps diagnose issues like abnormal bleeding, infections, or tissue abnormalities, including cancer. During the procedure, a healthcare provider inserts a thin instrument through the cervix to gently remove a tiny piece of the uterine lining. The sample is then analyzed in a lab. It's typically quick and causes minimal discomfort, providing valuable information about uterine health and helping guide appropriate treatment.
