I would not recommend further evaluation of this bleeding at this time based on what you have shared. It is reassuring that your endometrial biopsy was reassuring 9 months ago, and assuming that the bleeding you describe is not more/worse than the bleeding that led to this biopsy, I would not repeat the biopsy (or any other testing at this time). The biggest risk factors for endometrial cancer are obesity and being on unopposed estrogen, so assuming you are not obese (BMI > 30) and have not been on unopposed estrogen I think further observation is a safe approach. When the bleeding continues to be less and less, that is reassuring (endometrial cancer usually has increasing bleeding over time).
