Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An endometrial biopsy is initially indicated for women over age 35 with intermenstrual bleeding in order to identify potential endometrial hyperplasia and cancer. An MRI is not useful for the initial evaluation of intermenstrual bleeding. A dilation and curettage (D&C) is not initially indicated for the evaluation of intermenstrual bleeding due to surgical risks, expense, pain and the need for anesthesia.
