This may sound blunt, but are you happy with your sex life? Finding your sexual health is lacking as you get older is a topic that resonates with many, even if it is often not discussed openly.
It is undeniable that sexual health and wellness changes throughout our lives. Thankfully, we now have innovative treatments that can help. And no, we are not talking about little blue pills. There are other options out there, including an injectable treatment that lasts.
The Impact of Aging on Intimacy
Aging is a complex process that affects our body in various ways. For men, testosterone or other hormone levels can become a problem, but cardiovascular disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, hypercholesterolemia, and certain medications, or any combination of those things, can lead to sexual dysfunction. It is common for men to experience decreased sex drive, weakened erections, or even erectile dysfunction.
For women, the transition through and post-menopause often presents its own set of hurdles. Reduced estrogen levels can lead to symptoms like vaginal dryness, discomfort during intercourse, and changes in libido. And, like men, health conditions and medications can impact sexual health. Women also may experience decreases in libido. Additionally, it is not uncommon, particularly after menopause, for women to suffer from vaginal atrophy, which can include vaginal dryness or painful intercourse. In fact, one recent study found that 82% of participants noted vaginal discomfort.
Unfortunately, members of both sexes can find it embarrassing to seek treatment. Or, they believe that temporary solutions, such as lubricant or Viagra, are their only options.
PRP Treatments
Platelet-rich plasma, commonly known as PRP, is taking the regenerative medicine world by storm. PRP is derived from your own blood. The process concentrates the components found in blood that are known for their healing and regenerative properties. Its applications range from treating injuries in athletes to anti-aging cosmetic applications. But one fascinating place they have the potential for improving? The bedroom.
For Women: the PRP Fem Shot
By injecting PRP into specific areas, the aim is to boost sensitivity, rejuvenate vaginal tissues, and enhance overall responsiveness. With improved tissue health and circulation, it offers a pathway to counter some of the challenges women face due to aging, with an emphasis on enhancing the quality and satisfaction of intimate encounters. In other words, the Fem Shot can have the following benefits:
- Increased clitoral stimulation
- Increased libido
- Decreased pain during intercourse
- Increased lubrication
- Better, more frequent orgasms
- Improved urinary incontinence
- Vaginal rejuvenation
For Men: the PRP Man Shot
The PRP Man Shot is tailored to address concerns like erectile function, tissue health, and sensation by optimizing erectile function, tissue vitality, and sensory enhancement. This treatment offers men a chance to regain or maintain the vigor and confidence in their intimate relationships. Don’t worry, for both men and women, the area is numbed for treatment, and patients report very little discomfort.
The Benefits of Improved Sexual Health
It’s crucial to recognize that sexual health is not isolated to intercourse. Sexual health influences our mental health and self-perception and can improve mood, strengthen relationships, and even aid in stress management.
Could PRP Improve Your Sex Life?
The great benefit of PRP treatment is that most patients see improvement with just one treatment, and the effects can last up to 18 months.
Before considering any treatment, especially one as personal as this, it’s essential to consult with professionals knowledgeable in PRP. We’ve seen the impact that treatments like PRP can have on individuals’ sexual health and overall well-being.
