This study compares different combinations of local anesthetic doses and patient positions during spinal anesthesia for urogenital surgery. Spinal anesthesia is a common and safe technique where medication is injected into the lower back to numb the body during surgery. The study will test two different doses of bupivacaine (a numbing medication): a lower dose (8 mg) and a standard dose (12 mg). It will also test two different patient positions after the spinal injection: lying flat (neutral position) and lying with the head slightly lower than the feet (Trendelenburg position). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups: * Group 1: Lower dose + lying flat * Group 2: Lower dose + head-down position * Group 3: Standard dose + lying flat * Group 4: Standard dose + head-down position The study will measure how well the anesthesia works, how high the numbness spreads in the body, and how it affects blood pressure and heart rate. The goal is to find the best combination of dose and position that provides good anesthesia while keeping blood pressure stable. This research may help doctors choose the safest and most effective anesthesia approach for each patient based on their individual needs.
