I have to be honest that I had a biopsy in the office and I had no pain. I did bleed a lot and for most of the day. I do have st.3c endometrial cancer, just finished 6 rds of chemo, will be having radiation and immunotherapy.

How about acrivon Therapeutics? Is their clinical drug and diagnosis promosing?

[@kathyfullarton8126]

There are MANY women who would vehemently disagree with this doctor when she states an endometrial biopsy does not require analgesia, since it not a painful procedure. I am sure she is very smart doctor, but on this point she is clueless.

[@strawberrygirl8572]

Absolutely. I'm going in for one soon and every woman I've talked to (many) who's had a biopsy has said it was extremely painful and not to have one unless my doctor uses lidocaine.

I'm never getting a blind biopsy...esp in office with only ibuprofen and gaslighting to help me!! These ppl are insane and I want to fly to Bali or something to escape westernized medicine

@@strawberrygirl8572most don’t do lidocaine because it does not help much with pain.

What if you have endometrial hyperplasia, very unusual bleeding but are not menopausal but approaching - along with fibroids getting very dismissed & I have history of uterine/ovarian cancers in family

[@strawberrygirl8572]

@@nicolastewart5751 you can definitely have unusual thickening even before meno, so make sure and see your gyn about that. You might need a vaginal ultrasound and possibly just help with hormone balancing.

Having had an endometrial biopsy - I have to say it was extremely painful. It was awful. Don't mislead a patient by saying "you will feel a little pressure." This is a lie.
