How your menstrual cycle affects pain relief before gallbladder surgery
Part of Pain, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how the natural hormone changes during your menstrual cycle might affect a pain-blocking injection given before gallbladder surgery. The goal is to see if the timing of your cycle influences how well the pain relief works after the operation.
