Abstract
This single-center, double-blind randomized controlled trial sought to assess whether intrauterine levobupivacaine reduced post hysteroscopy pain and need for analgesics and allowed earlier return to normal activity. During January 2013 to December 2015, 438 women were recruited into this study, with 224 in the intervention group and 214 in the control group. Levobupivacaine was chosen as the intrauterine anesthetic in the intervention group because of its safety profile. The control group received intrauterine normal saline
