I have to wonder if any of the @ssholes claiming this procedure doesn’t hurt ever went through it… or are even female.
I can tell you firsthand that it hurts like hell! And I am not someone who is a wimp when it comes to pain.
I must say, though, that I’m glad I didn’t know I was to have this procedure – or ever even heard of it before – until just before my gynecologist performed it on me. Knowing what was coming would have scared the cr@p out of me.

I was totally unprepared for the pain of this biopsy. I’ve had three children, twice without any drugs at all. The biopsy was incredibly painful, much worse than giving birth. I was shaking and crying.

I”m getting it done in two days. I’m hoping it goes well. I’m having pain now before the procedure so I’m worried the procedure will cause even MORE pain. I’ve never had a baby so…wish me luck!

I thank you for this video.I just went to the doctor last week and everything happened just as the video stated. I felt mild cramping afterwards but not unbearable. Also the doctor had to go in twice in order to get some tissue because she said that she was unable to get it the first time. Thanks for the great video. Please give more.

Yes, that seems to be one of the factors. As I have read in other information about the procedure, there are also other things that factor in on the varying discomfort level from woman to woman. For example, it is stated that a woman who has vaginally delivered a baby previously is much more likely to experience significantly less pain than a woman who has never given birth.

i got that done alredy

Yeah, I’d say they sure left something out by not mentioning the pain.
I had this done just yesterday, and had no idea how painful it was. My doctor only told me I’d feel some cramping, and instructed me to breathe deeply & to hold my breath when he tells me to. Well, it turned out it was freakin’ impossible for me to hold my breath while I’m gasping in pain!

actually i should rephrase that – i am sure the discomfort level is directly linked to the medical condition being treated.

personally i didn’t find it too bad, perhaps it is all psychological.

I viewed this video last week because I wanted to prepare myself for the procedure and the neg comments did scare me BIG time. I was so worried every single day since I viewed this video and read the comments before mine. Ok, so I had the procedure done earlier this morning @ around 10am and expected the worst pain ever. I was so nervous. To my surprise it was just a mild cramp. In fact I almost wished it was painful cause my husband left the office to come with me. LOL

I gave birth without pain killers because labor pains were LESS than this procedure. They need to give a pain blocking agent for this. I can take alot of pain but this WAS SEVERE.

エロイぜ(´・ω・｀)

I had this done with my 2 year old sitting on my chest. It was absolutely horrid.
November 15th, 2009 at 8:29 am
well, how was it?
November 15th, 2009 at 9:15 am
am getting this procedure done in an hour ans a half and I’m scared as shit cuz it sounds so painful. Film at 11:00……
November 15th, 2009 at 9:46 am
Don’t worry it won’t hurt, i’m a guy so you ask how I should I know?
Well i’ve been told about different things in my life that hurt soo bad but when my muscles was hanging out after a deadly car crash I didn’t feel a thing.
Banging your foot at night is the worst pain you can get, after that you won’t feel any worse due to shock.

I really feel for women…the have to go through things like menustral and other things like these, and other rules in society which do not apply to men….i had a girlfriend who kept saying she whished she was a guy….
…i could never go through all that….

I had this done 14 years ago, right before my myomectomy. I was an OB-GYN nurse but still didn’t know what to expect. Well, I am used to having very severe menstral cramps all of my life, but this was different. It felt like I was having my insides ripped out! It was also a very big shock too. I nearly passed out laying on table. I recomment any type of “numbing” agent available. And after all that it just proved what I thought, “normal endometrial tissue with benign fibrotic tissue”.

I went through this, it does hurt…..it’s like a very intense cramp pain, veeeeryyyyyy intense…….
November 15th, 2009 at 12:30 pm
Having to have this done next week – from what I read it hurts really bad so I called Ob/Gyn’s office saying how scared I was and that I had a very low pain threshold so they are having me come in early to take Xanax and give me a Toradol shot – hopefully that will take the edge off.
If this is so painful why the F don’t they give patients a local or put them to sleep?!?!?!?
