About this trial

Hysteroscopic myomectomy is typically suitable for myomas measuring under 4 cm in size. The utilization of misoprostol before the procedure can facilitate uterine access, decrease fluid absorption, and reduce blood loss, consequently leading to a decrease in the overall procedure time. In this randomized trial, the investigators aim to investigate the impact of misoprostol administration and its effects on each of the mentioned parameters.
