Summary

This study looks at whether a special ear therapy (Bagua auriculotherapy) can help reduce pain and anxiety in women having a hysteroscopy, a procedure to look inside the uterus. About 132 women aged 20 to 45 will receive this ear treatment along with standard care. The goal is to see if it makes the procedure less painful and less stressful.
