Uhm. A bit slow today. The joke is that he should have asked if they wanted an anesthetic before doing all the painful stuff, not after, right?

And at the very least the moment he noticed she was in pain. This also against a backdrop of doctors long believing women had higher pain tolerance.

I think it's more that the doctor was struggling to insert it, so he offer the local anesthetic only to make his job easier.
