Brief Summary
Hysteroscopy is a reference diagnostic and therapeutic procedure in intrauterine pathologies, increasingly performed without general anesthesia. Pain is the most common reason for discontinuation of outpatient hysteroscopy (OH). There is no consensus on pain alleviation during OH. The aim was to compare the effectiveness of pain relief options during OH.
