A member asked:

An attempted endometrial biopsy was done with my annual pap but couldnt do it. found out next day i had a bv infection while they did it .dangerous?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bv infection ?: "BV" can be considered a "local" infection, and appropriate prophylaxis is usually done just prior to instrumentation of the endometrial cavity. Assuming the "BV" was discovered by a culture done prior to the attempted endometrial biopsy, and then the cervical exterior and canal was treated with an antiseptic, the risk of spread is minimal.
