Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
visual analog scale (VAS) pain score
The VAS consisted of a 10 cm line ranging from 0 to 10 (anchored by 0=no pain and 10=very severe pain). Patients were asked to mark the number that represented their perceived level of pain. Based on the VAS scores, the pain level ratings were classified as: mild (rated 1-3), moderate (4-6) or severe (7-10).

'lidocaine flushing' group
EXPERIMENTALintrauterine infusion of 2% lidocaine (Rafa laboratories, Israel) just prior to HyFoSy
Placebo group
PLACEBO COMPARATORintrauterine infusion of 0.9 % normal saline (placebo group) just prior to HyFoSy.
