Summary

Hysteroscopy is an instrument to visualize the interior walls of uterus (womb) and it enables the doctor to do minor operative procedures. Although it causes little discomfort, sometimes it may be disturbing for the patient. This pain is usually perceived during the passage of the instrument through the cervix (neck of the womb). The investigators would like to minimize this pain by two drugs: Misoprotol and lidocaine
