Could a simple shot make hysteroscopy Pain-Free?

NCT ID NCT06653400

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether adding ketorolac (an anti-inflammatory) to the standard lidocaine numbing shot can reduce pain during office hysteroscopy, a procedure to look inside the uterus. Sixty women with abnormal bleeding will be randomly assigned to get either the combo or lidocaine alone. The main goal is to see if pain scores are lower with the combination.
