5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The investigators aim to enroll 2000 patients to undergo diagnostic hysteroscopy for suspected uterine pathologies. Women will be randomized into two groups on the basis of distension medium : group A CO2; group B physiological solution. Pain discomfort will be evaluated after the examination.
