Oocyte retrieval is an outpatient procedure that is a routine surgical intervention in the process of assisted reproductive technologies and oocyte banking. The perioperative pain control is achieved with multidrug regimen including intraoperative opioid medication and perioperative administration of oral or intravenous acetaminophen. This medication is more commonly known as Tylenol. Intravenous formulation of this medication is several fold more expensive and the data for perioperative pain control is mixed on the equivalence of pain control with intravenous versus oral acetaminophen in other fields. Currently there is no accepted standard of care and the two formulations are used interchangeably depending on primary physician's preference. We are conducting an equivalence placebo controlled randomized clinical trial to assess the difference in efficacy of these two formulations
The investigators are going to study the difference in postoperative pain control after administration of oral versus intravenous formulation of acetaminophen
