If you are a woman who suffers from sexual dysfunction such as low desire, inability to achieve an orgasm, dyspareunia (pain with sex), or with urinary incontinence, you know how frustrating these issues can be. Most women are embarrassed or nervous to speak with their physician about such matters, and many doctors don’t have much to say on these important issues (largely because until recently, there were very few ways to deal with these female concerns aside from prescribing hormones or suggesting psychotherapy. Now, we can offer a new procedure the Orgasm Shot®, or O-Shot®, that not only offers hope for these conditions, but can also be administered during a simple, comfortable, in-office procedure.

How Does the O-Shot® Work? 

First, a small amount of blood is drawn from your arm.  Using a centrifuge, the doctor isolates platelets from that blood (platelet rich plasma, or PRP), all within about 15 minutes.  The platelets are then “activated” to release at least 20 factors that would normally be used to heal injured tissue.  These growth factors cause increased collagen, neovascularization (new blood flow), better nerve conduction, and better lubrication, with healing of scarring and pain.
