NCT ID NCT06929416
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 90 women to see if higher estrogen levels make propofol injection more painful. One group had high estrogen from IVF treatment, the other had normal levels. Researchers measured pain using a simple scale. The goal is to understand how hormones affect pain and improve comfort during anesthesia.
