Why You Should Get The O-Shot From A Urogynecologist

Deciding who should perform your O-Shot procedure can be a very difficult choice! Patients have a lot of things to consider, such as their treatment goals, the provider’s experience, what technique will be used, and of course, cost. However, when it comes to which providers are the most qualified to administer the O-Shot for sexual wellness, there is only one clear winner: urogynecologists.

Urogynecologists specialize in vulvar, vaginal, and pelvic floor anatomy and function. This makes them the perfect candidates to offer the O-Shot, which consists of a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection in the clitoral area. Their unique expertise allows for placement to be safe and precise, which maximizes the therapeutic benefits of the procedure. Another unique bonus of seeing a urogynecologist for your O-Shot injection is that they may actually be able to treat several problem areas during your visit. In addition to sexual dysfunction, PRP can be used to help with certain types of urinary leakage and vaginal dryness. These injections can often be done during the same visit with the same blood draw, which brings up an important point…

What many people do not consider is that not all PRP is created equal. The concentration of platelets and proteins present in PRP is dependent on the volume of fluid needed for injection, the amount of blood drawn, and the way the blood is processed. We take extra care to provide our patients the best chance for the most beneficial outcome, therefore we process our PRP using the most advanced technology on the market. This allows us to tailor the concentration and volume of PRP in a way that maximizes treatment outcomes.
