Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy involves using a patient's own blood to potentially enhance the body's natural healing processes. It is being explored as a treatment for various conditions, including those affecting vaginal and vulvar health.

The core idea behind PRP therapy is to harness the regenerative powers of blood platelets. By concentrating platelets from the patient’s blood, clinicians aim to activate healing mechanisms at a targeted site, enhancing tissue repair and regeneration.

• Blood is drawn from the patient for the procedure.
• The blood is spun in a centrifuge to concentrate platelets.
• Activated platelets release growth factors.
• The solution is injected into specific areas like the vagina and vulva.

In the context of vaginal health, PRP therapy may benefit those experiencing certain issues by promoting tissue healing. This can sometimes address discomfort, improve tissue integrity, or support sexual function, depending on individual cases and the condition treated.

While PRP therapy is gaining interest, it is vital for patients to consult healthcare professionals experienced with the technique. Decisions should be based on individual health needs and scientific evidence, ensuring safe and informed application.
