Lichen Sclerosus

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is revolutionizing women's health by offering a natural, regenerative approach to improving intimate wellness. While PRP has long been used in orthopedics and aesthetics, its benefits for vaginal and sexual health are gaining widespread recognition.

What is PRP Therapy?

PRP is derived from your own blood and contains a concentrated dose of growth factors that promote tissue repair, collagen production, and nerve regeneration. By drawing a small sample of blood, processing it to isolate the platelet-rich portion, and injecting it into targeted areas, PRP can enhance healing and restore function.

Why PRP for Women’s Intimate Health?

Women have, on average, double the nerve density in their clitoris compared to men’s glans penis, with men having about 4,000 nerve endings. This means that any loss of sensation, whether due to aging, hormonal changes, or medical conditions, can have a significant impact on pleasure and overall well-being. PRP therapy offers a way to regenerate tissue and enhance sensitivity naturally.

Conditions PRP May Help With:

🔸 Lichen sclerosus – A chronic inflammatory skin condition causing irritation and scarring in the vulvar area🔸 Bladder urgency – Overactive bladder symptoms and mild stress incontinence🔸 Decreased clitoral or G-spot sensation – Loss of arousal and difficulty achieving orgasm🔸 Vaginal dryness – Often due to hormonal changes or menopause

My Experience with PRP in Women’s Health

In my practice, I have seen amazing results with PRP for my patients with lichen sclerosus, urinary urgency, and decreased sensation. Many have reported improved comfort, better bladder control, and enhanced sensation, significantly improving their quality of life. It has been especially promising for women seeking a non-surgical, hormone-free solution to these concerns.

Benefits of PRP for Women

💖 Increased sensation and pleasure

💖 Improved tissue hydration and lubrication

💖 Stronger, healthier vaginal and vulvar tissue

💖 Enhanced bladder control and reduced urgency

💖 A non-surgical, natural alternative to hormone treatments.

Who Should NOT Get PRP?

While PRP is generally safe, it is not recommended for individuals with:

🚫 Blood disorders (platelet dysfunction or critical thrombocytopenia)

🚫 Severe anemia (HGB < 10 g/dL) or low platelet count (< 105,000/ml)

🚫 Active cancer (especially blood or bone-related)

🚫 Recent infections (sepsis or local infection at the injection site)

🚫 Hemodynamic instability (severe heart or blood pressure issues).

What to Expect During the Procedure

The PRP injection is a quick, in-office procedure with minimal downtime. A small amount of your blood is drawn, processed, and then injected into targeted areas to stimulate tissue repair. Most women notice improvements within weeks, with continued benefits over the next few months.

If you’re struggling with intimacy concerns, bladder urgency, or vaginal discomfort, PRP therapy may be a safe and effective option for you.
