Comparing two biopsy methods for thin uterine lining
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests two ways to take a small sample of the uterus lining (endometrium) when it is thin. The results may help women have a more comfortable and effective biopsy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how ultrasound and tissue samples (histology) can better guide fertility-sparing treatment for early uterine cancer or precancer. It aims to improve how doctors decide on surgery or hormone therapy to preserve fertility.
This study is looking at aging cells in the lining of the uterus in women who have a thin endometrial lining. It aims to understand what causes this problem and how to improve fertility treatment.
This study compares two different devices used to collect tissue samples from the uterus (endometrial biopsy). Doctors use these samples to check for cancer or other problems when women have abnormal bleeding or other concerning symptoms. The trial will help determine which device works better and causes less discomfort.
This study tests two less invasive methods—sampling cells from the lining of the uterus (endometrial cytology) and checking DNA changes in the cervix—to see if they can help detect endometrial cancer or atypical hyperplasia, and to monitor response in people who are preserving their fertility. It aims to find a gentler alternative to traditional biopsy.
This study tests a simple, non-invasive method to detect endometrial cancer in women after menopause who have abnormal bleeding. It aims to find cancer early in those at higher risk, such as women with certain genetic conditions or risk factors.
This study looks at patterns in the uterus and the uterine lining to understand how ready the uterus is for pregnancy. You may be able to join if you are within a specific age range and don’t have certain common uterine conditions.
