Summary
This study looked at whether the menstrual cycle affects pain after a root canal. 99 people (72 women and 27 men) took part. Women in the menstrual and secretory phases reported more pain than men, while those in the proliferative phase had similar pain levels. The results suggest that cycle timing may influence short-term pain after treatment.
