- What it's testing
- The goal of this double blinded randomized control trial is to evaluate the impact of misoprostol on fluid deficit during hysteroscopic myomectomies. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there is difference in fluid deficit in patients who receive misoprostol vs placebo pre operatively for hysteroscopic myomectomies?
