Abstract
Objective: Endometrial sampling techniques are invasive and uncomfortable and require expertise to perform. Menstrual cups are capable of collecting vaginal, cervical, and endometrial secretions for cytological and pathological analysis. It is hypothesized that endometrial cells collected by menstrual cup could be used to screen for endometrial cancer and that patients may prefer this technique. The objectives of this pilot study are to evaluate the feasibility of using a menstrual cup to diagnose endometrial cancer, to compare patient-reported comfort/preference, and to obtain preliminary data to power a larger study.
