Endometrial biopsy just prior to IVF

Hello ladies,

My dr. gave me the option to have an endometrial biopsy just prior to starting stims for my first IVF cycle. He said that although they do not know for sure if it helps, that having the endo biopsy done may help with implantation during an IVF cycle, since it increases the blood flow in the uterus, etc. (as it heals itself).

I decided that it can't hurt to try, so I am going today. I was just curious if any of you tried this or not or if you knew anything else about it.

I also found a study online supporting this:

Halisa, we have the same dr. so it makes sense that you had it too.
