Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To compare the effectiveness of vaginal dinoprostone and vaginal Isonicotinic acid hydrazide in minimizing the pain experienced by postmenopausal patients during diagnostic office hysteroscopy and to assess the ease of insertion of hysteroscope as reported by the hysteroscopist.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
N/A

Detailed Description

hysteroscopy is commonly used in the diagnosis and treatment of intrauterine lesions such as polyps, fibroids, septa, and adhesions, and in the presence of abnormal bleeding and during the removal of an intrauterine device or foreign body. Cervical ripening is made possible by the use of medication through different routes.
