How To Prepare For A Breast Biopsy

How can I prepare for a breast biopsy?

Women can prepare themselves for a breast biopsy by following the instructions of the radiologist who is performing the biopsy. In most instances you will be asked not to have anything to eat after midnight the night before. You will also be asked not to take any medications that might thin your blood or cause you to have an increased risk of bleeding, that includes aspirin-containing medications, prior to the procedure.
