Endometrial Biopsy Test and Its Price

An endometrial biopsy is a procedure that entails the removal of a small sample of tissue from the uterine lining (endometrium) to examine it under a microscope. It is used to diagnose uterine cancer. A biopsy is performed on the tissue that has been removed to check for cancer and other cell abnormalities.

Why is Endometrial Biopsy done? 

1. An endometrial biopsy assists your doctor in determining the source of heavy or irregular bleeding.
2. It's the usual way to find out if you have endometrial cancer. Even though it is an essential office procedure, it must be performed by a physician who has served the test before.
3. Your doctor can also use the biopsy to examine if your endometrial hormone levels are balanced.

The following conditions might necessitate an endometrial biopsy:

1. Heavy or long periods
2. Unusual menstruation
3. Menopause bleeding
4. Ultrasound shows thickened uterine lining

During the Test

An endometrial biopsy is usually performed in an Outpatient basis without an anesthesia

The procedure follows these steps:

1. You would have to undress from the waist down and then you would cover yourself with the sheet.
2. You could then place the feet in stirrups and then lay back on the reclined exam table like you would for either a pelvic exam or Pap smear.
3. The healthcare professional would then insert a speculum into the patient’s vagina and then to hold it open so that they can evaluate your cervix (similar to a Pap test).
4. Your provider will clean your cervix with a special solution.
5. They may then use a special instrument, which is called a tenaculum that will help you hold the cervix steady so they could then insert a suction tube into the uterus. Some patients find this step to be one of the most painful steps of the procedure.
6. Finally, the healthcare provider then places a very thin suction tube through the cervix into the uterus to collect the tissue sample.
7. You may feel that the provider would be moving the instrument around to successfully get the tissue sample.
8. The healthcare professional would then send the tissue to a pathologist who would further analyze the cells.

The procedure itself would take between around five to 15 minutes.

After the test

You may want to place the sanitary pad in the underwear immediately after the biopsy.
