Well. I have had three. And yes they do hurt. I don’t know why drs don’t give anything stronger for pain for the procedure. Fortunately the procedure doesn’t last too long and once it’s over you will be fine. Hope your results are negative.

Thanks Topsz, for sharing. That is good news - that it doesn't last too long. Thank you.

My Dr. had ordered a biopsy because I was having post menopausal bleeding and cramping. Because I was already in pain I asked to have it done under local anethesia, I was referred to a Surgeon that agreed to do it. I had 4 previous ultrasounds that did not detect the large tumor that was in my cervix so I’m glad that I didn’t agree to having it done in a drs office with just a zanax for the pain. Everyone is different though and my circumstances were not common but as my Dr found out biopsy’s are not a one size fits all. You are the only one that knows how much pain you can tolerate., and I think alittle more consideration needs to be given to anyone that had to go through something like this . And perhaps given the choice to have something alittle stronger than a low dose pain reliever
