How your menstrual cycle affects nausea after gallbladder surgery
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at whether the phase of your menstrual cycle influences how much anesthesia medicine you need and how likely you are to feel sick after gallbladder surgery. If you join, it could help doctors personalize care for women having this procedure.

This study examines how the menstrual cycle may affect pressure in the optic nerve (the nerve connected to your eye) during laparoscopic gynecologic surgery. Researchers want to understand if the timing of surgery within your cycle matters for eye and brain safety.
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.
This study looks at how a person's tendency to focus on and feel overwhelmed by pain (called 'pain catastrophizing') might affect nausea and vomiting after gallbladder surgery. If you are scheduled for keyhole gallbladder removal, you may help doctors better predict and prevent post-surgery nausea.
This trial tests if taking ginger can help prevent nausea and vomiting after gallbladder surgery. It might be an option for people who want a natural remedy to feel better after their operation.
This study tests two different medication combinations to prevent nausea and vomiting after laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery. You'll receive either ondansetron plus metoclopramide, or dexamethasone plus metoclopramide, and researchers will track how quickly you need rescue medication if nausea occurs.
This study tests a new way of guiding anesthesia during gallbladder removal surgery, with the goal of using less opioid pain medicine. It may help you have a smoother recovery with fewer side effects.
