01/29/2020 An endometrial biopsy refers to the procedure your OBGYN doctor in NYC may perform that involves removing a tiny piece of tissue from your endometrium, more commonly called the uterine lining. The test is done so that the tissue can be examined under a microscope or more extensively in a lab.


Even a small sample of tissue can help to confirm a diagnosis that may not be apparent on previous tests. The sample may show changes in the cells that indicate a certain condition or reflect hormone changes. After an endometrial biopsy, your gynecologist in Midtown typically will have a clearer idea of your condition and which treatment you require — or that additional tests need to be performed.

Why You Might Need the Test
The test can reveal a number of conditions from the tissue sample removed during an endometrial biopsy. Conditions that may require that you undergo a biopsy to find a cause of your symptoms include:


• Bleeding that occurs after you’ve stopped menstruating due to menopause
• Discovery of a thickened uterine wall following an ultrasound
• Excessive bleeding while taking fertility drugs
• Menstrual periods that include an abnormally strong blood flow, such as bleeding that lasts too long, is heavier than normal or is continuously irregular
• Check for endometrial cancer



The test may be indicated if your OBGYN believes you may have an infection that can’t otherwise be confirmed. Infections very often lead to excessive bleeding, a condition called endometriosis. Testing for endometrial cancer is a vital step in the treatment of the disease because this type of cancer is the most common form that occurs in the female reproductive system. At the same time, gyn specialist in Midtown may have other reasons for conducting an endometrial biopsy.
