Womb Biopsy for Uterine Natural Killer Cells

Hubby was working away so I bravely went to the clinic by myself. I was told that the Professor was running over an hour late and another doctor could do the biopsy if I wanted. I said I didn't mind another doctor doing it but I still wanted to wait and talk to the Prof. Then I almost panicked because the Prof does these all the time but it might not be a common procedure for the other doctors! Anyway, they told the Prof I would wait for her.

Eventually all the staff at the clinic went home apart from the Prof and a doctor working with her. It got down to another couple and myself and we started talking as it was their first time to the clinic and they didn't know where the toilets where and her husband nearly went in the ladies. Their appointment was before mine but the doctor called me in first. I asked the Prof if she shouldn't see the other couple first in all fairness and she said "there's another couple?" she was having a bad day!

The Prof said I was a complicated case and she was amazed that I got pregnant naturally with a low egg reserve and my other problems. I asked her if she thought that I might have got pregnant through taking DHEA which acts like a steroid, and then remained pregnant for longer than normal because I was on proper steroids. She agreed that this could have been the case but she isn't very familiar with DHEA but lots of ladies have been mentioning it to her.We also talked about the biopsy and she explained that they are using it as a kind of treatment too, see the article below to see what I'm on about:

Next the Prof scanned me. She said I had lovely womb lining, all ready for a biopsy. As we were looking at the screen the other doctor whispered to her and she asked me if I had very painful periods. She explained that the doctor had just completed a 2 year degree in sonography/scanning and he could see some of my endometriosis. They explained that around my lining were the womb muscles and some endometriosis was in the muscles - where it can't be removed. She was worried that the biopsy may hurt a bit more because of the endo!

The biopsy itself was quite painful. At first I thought it wasn't too bad but I didn't realise that they hadn't actually got the straw like device through my cervix yet! When it did go through, my womb started cramping. Then, as they sort of scraped the womb lining with the straw for a minute or so, it was a very unpleasant feeling (but not as painful as what I went through on Christmas Eve!).

I rested for a few minutes and as soon as I left the clinic I gobbled down a Twix - the chocolate surge would surely but me back in a happy frame of mind!

The results take about 4-5 weeks and the Prof will email me and arrange a telephone consultation to discuss them and any treatment if necessary.
