Decoding Your Uterine Health

Prevention Made Personal.

Your body goes through significant changes during the menopausal transition and beyond. Your uterus, in particular, has an important story to tell about your health during this time. An endometrial biopsy helps us listen carefully to that story.

As menopause specialists, we consider this biopsy a crucial diagnostic tool, especially valuable for women in midlife and their postmenopausal years. This simple yet powerful procedure allows us to examine the health of your uterine lining (endometrium) closely. It involves gently collecting a small sample of tissue from the inner lining of your uterus, which is then analyzed for any abnormal cells or changes.

This procedure is particularly important if you’re experiencing unusual bleeding patterns, which can be common but concerning during the menopausal transition. Any bleeding after menopause is especially crucial to investigate.

We also suggest this procedure for women over 50 or those with other risk factors for endometrial cancer. Your personal medical history plays a role too. If you have a history of conditions like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), have been on long-term hormone therapy, or have a family history of certain cancers, an endometrial biopsy can provide valuable insights and peace of mind.


Detecting Key Changes From Perimenopause to Postmenopause

An endometrial biopsy can detect various conditions that are more prevalent in midlife women, including

Endometrial cancer or precancerous changes, which are more common after menopause

Hormonal imbalances affecting the uterine lining, which are common during the menopausal transition

In perimenopausal women, potential causes of fertility issues or recurrent miscarriages

We understand that any medical procedure can feel daunting, which is why we’ve designed our endometrial biopsy process to be as comfortable and straightforward as possible.
