An endometrial biopsy at Kanaa Fertility is a simple out-patient procedure to sample and test your uterine lining — an easier alternative to D&C, with no admission or anaesthesia required. Two clinics in KK Nagar & Mylapore, with in-person & online consultations.

WHAT IS AN ENDOMETRIAL BIOPSY

A Simple, Quick Way to Test Your Uterine Lining

An easier alternative to traditional D&C — no admission or anaesthesia needed.

This is a simple out-patient procedure where a thin, straw-like plastic tube is inserted inside the uterus to gently collect a small sample of the inner lining of the uterus — called the endometrium — for the purpose of sending it for biopsy.

Quick & Out-Patient

No hospital admission needed.

No Anaesthesia Required

Unlike traditional D&C.

Simple Tools

A thin, flexible catheter is all that's needed.

ALTERNATIVES

Alternatives to Endometrial Biopsy

It's done in cases of abnormal uterine bleeding or postmenopausal bleeding, to test the tissue for any disordered growth which may be a precursor of uterine cancer, and may detect early stages of uterine cancer in some women. It's an easier alternative to traditional Dilatation and Curettage (D&C), as there's no need for admission or anaesthesia.
Who might need an endometrial biopsy?
Pending a doctor's confirmed guidance before publishing — this needs real clinical input, not a general guess.
Is it painful?
Most women experience mild cramping during the procedure, similar to period cramps — it's usually brief and manageable.
What are the benefits of an endometrial biopsy?
It's a simple way to check your uterine lining without needing hospital admission or anaesthesia, and it can help detect changes early.
