Painful hysteroscopy

Posted By Hallmark

"Painful hysteroscopy"

About: Torbay Hospital / Gynaecology

(as the patient),

I had this procedure done without any explanation of what was going to happen. The pain was unbearable, I thought the whole thing was quite babariac. I believe that there is no way this should be done without pain relief.
