Clinical Trial Summary

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is autologous blood which has been centrifuged to separate the supernatant resulting in a solution with high concentration of platelets. Injection of PRP stimulates cell growth and can has been proven safe and effective for uses in orthopedics, dermatology, and gynecology. Despite the relative paucity of data, the use of PRP as a therapy for sexual dysfunction and genitourinary symptoms in the setting of menopause has been patented as the O-Shot and V-Shot. This is a single-blinded randomized control trial to determine if PRP injections into the anterior vaginal wall improve sexual functioning in women diagnosed with the genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) characterized by vaginal dryness/irritation.
