At Georgetown OBGYN, we offer endometrial biopsies as part of our comprehensive women's healthcare services. An endometrial biopsy is a procedure to examine the endometrium, the inner lining of the uterus, for abnormalities or signs of cancer.

Procedure at Georgetown OBGYN

Our experienced physicians perform endometrial biopsies by taking a sample of endometrial tissue and examining it under a microscope. To carry out the biopsy, a speculum is inserted into the vagina, and a small plastic tube is inserted through the speculum to suction a sample of the lining. Anesthesia may be used, but the procedure is typically painless.

Reasons for an Endometrial Biopsy

An endometrial biopsy may be performed to determine the cause of abnormal menstrual periods, bleeding after menopause, or to screen for endometrial cancer. Our team at Georgetown OBGYN will work closely with you to discuss the necessity of the procedure and address any concerns you may have.

Trust Georgetown OBGYN to provide expert care and support throughout your endometrial biopsy and any necessary follow-up treatment. Our dedicated team is committed to ensuring your comfort and well-being during the procedure and beyond.
