Vaginal Injection of Platelet-Rich Plasma for Sexual Function: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to evaluate the effects of anterior vaginal wall injections of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on sexual function in sexually active premenopausal women without severe sexual dysfunction. The study found that women receiving PRP reported greater improvements in sexual function, as measured by the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) scores, compared to those receiving a saline placebo. These results suggest that PRP injections may enhance sexual function in this population.
