About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the level of intra-abdominal pressure during benign gynecologic laparoscopic surgery impacts postoperative pain.

The main question it aims to answer is:

• Does use of low (8 mmHg) versus standard (15 mmHg) intra-abdominal pressure impact postoperative pain?

Researchers will compare the use of low (8 mmHg) versus standard (15 mmHg) intra-abdominal pressure.

Participants will:

* Undergo their regular scheduled gynecologic laparoscopic surgery * Complete pain measures one hour, 3 hours, and 24 hours after surgery
