Endometrial biopsy or curettage is a procedure performed to identify the cause of bleeding in a woman who has irregular or unexpected bleeding. The tissues retrieved are examined by a pathologist.
The procedure is a simple intervention which takes a few minutes and can be performed under local or general anesthesia and doesn't isolate the woman from everyday life.
One of the most important features of endometrial biopsy is that it is a diagnostic method that also stops bleeding, in other words, it is a therapeutic procedure.
During the procedure, tissue is removed from the cervix so it is also possible to diagnose any disease associated with uterine lining as well as cervical diseases.
