A member asked:
My gynecologist knows exactly where my small polyp is couldn't they just use a brush or suction biopsy? or use ultrasound with biopsy probe?

Polyp.: In general, small polyp can resolve by itself.In a case where the polyp need to be removed, the most effective way is the use of operative hysteroscopy. Blind endometrial biopsy may work in 25% of the time. Saline ultrasound is good for diagnosis but not for removal. Good luck.
