Postcoital Test and Endometrial Biopsy Questions

Spoke to my doctors office this morning and we have a plan for the month of February!  I am going to stay on 50 mg of Clomid (take day 3-7 and have been on for 2 cycles already) and have both a Postcoital Test (PCT) and Endometrial Biopsy performed. 

When in your cycle did you have such tests conducted and any special instructions concerning either test?

    I've had an endometrial biospsy.   It needs to be performed after you ovulate but before your period begins. I can't remember the exact range of days after O they wanted but I think it was 7-10.   With my doctor I had to call in as soon as I ovulated and the nurse scheduled the biopsy.

    You don't need to do anything to prep other than take a couple advil an hour before.   They'll put a speculum in, put some freezing solution on your cervix, then take some cells from the lining of your uterus.

     You will feel cramping when they put the instrument into your uterus. Just keep breathing and it is over in literally 5-10 seconds.
