Use Your Own Blood to Revitalize Your Vagin
The female body and reproductive system are incredible, going through many changes in puberty, pregnancy and childbirth, and menopause. With everything your body endures, it can be difficult to keep up.
Sometimes, these changes impact sex life, making it difficult for many women to reach orgasm. Plus, as we get older, we also have to deal with difficult age-related changes related to our reproductive system.
Fortunately, we don’t have to settle! At Chrysolite Aesthetics, in Houston, Texas, Dr. Rawan Abu-Zeitoon and our team are committed to helping women revitalize their womanhood and experience pleasure again.
With the groundbreaking O-Shot® treatment, more women than ever are putting an end to these frustrating issues and enjoying sex again. Take a moment to learn more about the O-Shot and how it uses the powerful components of your own blood to rejuvenate your vagina.
How can my blood help my vagina?
The Orgasm Shot, or O-Shot for short, uses the platelets in your blood to heal and revitalize your vagina. The treatment was developed by a doctor and doesn’t use any drugs — just your blood.
The power of the treatment comes from your blood’s platelets. Your platelets are full of growth factors that help repair and regenerate your body’s tissues.
A simple blood draw takes a small amount of your blood and an in-office centrifuge transforms it into a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) solution, which has a high concentration of the powerful growth factors. When injected, the PRP solution stimulates function and cellular tissue growth.
Where you get the injection depends on your specific needs, but most patients get two injections — in the wall of the vagina and in the clitoris. You’ll receive a topical anesthetic to numb the area before the injection, and most patients report experiencing little to no pain during and after the injection.
The whole process takes less than an hour, and since it only uses your own blood, there are little to no side effects, and it is completely safe! The few patients who do experience side effects have minimal problems, generally mild irritation, discoloration, or bruising at the injection site.
One of the best parts is that you’ll be able to get back to your regular activities right away, including having sex.
Why should I get the O-Shot?
The O-Shot can help with many different women’s health issues. You may be experiencing one or more problems that the treatment can improve, including vaginal dryness, sexual dysfunction or painful intercourse, and trouble or inability to orgasm.
Additional problems the O-Shot helps with include:
- Stress urinary incontinence
- Ongoing vaginal pain due to childbirth
- Weakness/pain in the pelvic floor
- Nerve regeneration
- Transvaginal mesh pain
The O-Shot works to improve your sexual health and minimizes uncomfortable symptoms due to aging, hormonal imbalances, and menopause, all without drugs or side effects.
You can get the O-Shot at any age since sexual dysfunction and urinary incontinence can happen at any time. The treatment helps older women diminish the side effects of menopause and younger women who have trouble orgasming consistently.
After childbirth, some women experience a loss of vaginal tightness and sensation, which is addressed by the O-Shot as well.
What can I expect after the treatment?
Your results depend on your body and the underlying issues you were seeking treatment for. If you have stress incontinence, you may experience a faster improvement than if you sought treatment for achieving orgasm.
It takes about two weeks for the growth factors in the PRP solution to kick in, and the best results come in about three to four months after your treatment.
The benefits from your O-Shot usually last for one to two years, but everybody is different. You can schedule follow-up injections 6-12 months after your first shot, and the team at Chrysolite Aesthetics recommends yearly injections to maintain the best results.
If you’re wondering if you’ll still need lube after the O-Shot, you’ll be happy to know that the treatment increases sensation in your vagina, allowing you to experience greater arousal. Many women report that their natural lubrication increases after the O-Shot and they leave the lube in the drawer!
