A Randomized Controlled Trial of Oral Acetaminophen for Analgesic Control After Transvaginal Oocyte Retrieval

Summary

Current standard of care is no pretreatment medications before the egg retrieval, and the investigators would like to evaluate if preoperative Tylenol improves procedure and post procedure pain control over the current practice (no pre-treatment). Specifically, this study will compare Tylenol with a placebo when given before retrieval procedures. The investigators believe that if Tylenol can offer better analgesic relief than no pretreatment medications, then it may reduce the amount of narcotics needed by patients during and after the procedure and contribute to better patient satisfaction. . This study will enroll 100 participants all from University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB).
