This prospective observational study investigates the relationship between serum estrogen concentration and the incidence and severity of propofol injection pain (PIP) in female patients undergoing general anesthesia. The study will include 90 ASA I-II female patients aged 18-45. One group will consist of IVF patients with elevated estrogen levels, while the control group will include patients with normal estrogen levels undergoing other elective procedures. Pain will be assessed using a standardized four-point behavioral pain scale. The findings may enhance understanding of hormonal influences on pain and contribute to improving patient comfort during anesthesia induction.
