Hello
I've read your query and i understand your concern

You can talk to your doctor about transvaginal ultrasonography as an alternative to endometrial biopsy.

Dont be scared. It's not gonna be as painful as it sounds. The procedure will involve use of local anesthetic or pre-medications that will make the experience less painful.

Take Care
