April, I just went to Dr. Minassian and he had a biopsy done on me on my first visit for the same reasons, I have an aunt that had uterine cancer. He had his resident do the procedure and it wasn't pleasant, but it wasn't horrible either. It doesn't take very long and they pay very close attention to your discomfort as they do it. I'm 29 and he said that if I had endometrial cancer now that I'd be a medical anomaly, but thought it best to check anyway since the family history and my PCOS. He even went so far as to make sure my insurance would pay for it before recommending the procedure to me! I've never had a doctor do that. I'm so thrilled with Dr. Minassian. My mom came with me and she's thrilled too, finally, someone who listens!
