Vaginal Rejuvenation with PRP Injections by Dr. Susan Schroeder
Vaginal rejuvenation with PRP is a non-surgical, non-hormonal treatment that uses platelet-rich plasma from your own blood to support tissue health, lubrication, and sensation. At Perfect Skin MD in Juno Beach, Dr. Susan Schroeder performs the treatment herself after a private evaluation. It is off-label; the research is promising but early, and results vary.
Many women put off asking about vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, or changes in sensation because the topic feels awkward. This article covers what the treatment involves, the most common myths, recent study findings, and the questions to ask before you book. For full procedure details, see our PRP vaginal rejuvenation treatment page.
What Is Vaginal Rejuvenation with PRP Injections?
Vaginal rejuvenation with PRP is an in-office procedure in which a small amount of your blood is drawn, spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, and injected into specific areas of the vulva and vagina after numbing. Platelets release growth factors that are thought to support new blood vessel formation and tissue repair. Because the material is your own, there are no hormones, no synthetic fillers, and no incisions.
The appointment typically takes about an hour, and most women return to normal activity the same day.
The Three Areas Dr. Schroeder May Treat
The trademarked O-Shot protocol injects PRP into two areas. Dr. Schroeder’s approach may include a third site, depending on your symptoms:
- The clitoral area, which is associated with sensation and arousal
- The vaginal wall, which is associated with lubrication and tissue quality
- The G-spot region on the anterior vaginal wall, sometimes called a G-spot shot
Not every patient needs every site treated. Published studies have tested different injection sites, and the G-spot region has not been studied on its own, which Dr. Schroeder discusses openly during consultation.
Symptoms Women Commonly Ask About
- Vaginal dryness that lubricants and moisturizers have not solved
- Discomfort or pain during intercourse
- Reduced sensation, arousal, or difficulty reaching orgasm
- Changes after menopause, childbirth, or hormone-blocking cancer treatment
- Mild stress urinary leakage, where evidence is still mixed
Myths and Facts About PRP for Vaginal Rejuvenation
The most important fact about this treatment is that it is a reasonable, non-hormonal option for some women, not a guaranteed fix for everyone. It is not FDA-approved for vaginal use; it does not replace vaginal estrogen for women who can use it, and results vary from person to person.
Myth: PRP Is FDA Approved for Vaginal Rejuvenation
Fact: The FDA has not approved platelet-rich plasma for vaginal or vulvar treatment. PRP preparation systems are cleared as devices for specific uses, and vaginal injection is an off-label use a physician may perform using clinical judgment.
Myth: It Works for Everyone
Fact: Response varies meaningfully. Some women notice improved lubrication, comfort, or sensation over several weeks, while others notice little change. Any provider who promises a specific result is ahead of the evidence.
Myth: PRP Replaces Vaginal Estrogen
Fact: For women who can safely use it, vaginal estrogen has the strongest evidence for menopausal vaginal symptoms and is usually the first step. PRP is most relevant when estrogen is not an option, such as for some breast cancer survivors, when it is declined, or when it has not been enough on its own.
Myth: More Sessions Always Mean Better Results
Fact: How many treatments help and how long the results last are not well established. Many women are treated once and reassessed. Perfect Skin MD does not sell predetermined multi-session packages for this treatment.
What Recent Research Says About Vaginal PRP
Research on vaginal PRP has become more rigorous in 2025 and 2026. Three studies stand out:
- A 2026 randomized, placebo-controlled trial in Obstetrics & Gynecology of 52 premenopausal women found greater improvement in sexual function after one PRP injection into the anterior vaginal wall than after saline.
- A 2025 Mayo Clinic pilot study in breast cancer survivors found a single PRP treatment safe and feasible for menopausal vaginal symptoms, including in women taking aromatase inhibitors. It had no control group.
- A 2025 scoping review of PRP in gynecologic conditions found PRP generally well tolerated but noted wide variation in how it is prepared and injected, and called for larger trials.
These studies are encouraging but small. For a detailed breakdown of each, including limitations, see the research section of our PRP vaginal rejuvenation in Juno Beach page.
Questions to Ask Before You Book
Because preparation methods and injection techniques vary widely, the questions below help you compare providers and set realistic expectations:
- Who performs the injection, and what is their medical training?
- Which areas will be treated, and why those areas for my symptoms?
- How is the PRP prepared?
- Would vaginal estrogen, pelvic floor therapy, or a gynecologic evaluation be a better first step for me?
- How will we decide whether a second treatment is worthwhile?
- What is the FDA status of this treatment?
When to See a Gynecologist First
Postmenopausal bleeding, a new lump or mass, persistent pelvic pain without a clear cause, unusual discharge, or suspected infection all need a diagnosis before any cosmetic or regenerative treatment. Dr. Schroeder refers patients to a gynecologist or urogynecologist when that is the right next step.

People Also Ask About Vaginal Rejuvenation with PRP
Does vaginal rejuvenation with PRP really work?
It can help some women, but results vary and the evidence is still early. A small placebo-controlled trial published in 2026 found greater improvement in sexual function after PRP than after saline in premenopausal women. Larger, longer studies are still needed, and some patients notice little or no change.
What is the G-spot shot?
The G-spot shot is an informal name for injecting platelet-rich plasma into the anterior vaginal wall in the area associated with the G-spot. At Perfect Skin MD, this site may be treated alongside the clitoral area and vaginal tissue. Published research has not studied this specific site on its own, which Dr. Schroeder explains before treatment.
How soon after vaginal PRP can I have intercourse?
Most patients are advised to wait a short interval, often a few days, before resuming intercourse, but timing depends on your treatment and how you heal. Dr. Schroeder gives you specific instructions after your procedure. Mild tenderness or spotting for a day or two is common.
Can vaginal PRP help with incontinence?
Possibly, for mild stress leakage, but the evidence is mixed. Some studies report improvement, while at least one placebo-controlled trial of a single injection found no significant difference from placebo. Pelvic floor physical therapy remains a first-line approach, and persistent leakage should be evaluated by a gynecologist or urogynecologist.
Frequently Asked Questions About Vaginal Rejuvenation with PRP Injections
What is vaginal rejuvenation with PRP?
Vaginal rejuvenation with PRP is an in-office procedure in which platelet-rich plasma from your own blood is injected into the clitoral area, vaginal wall, and G-spot region to support blood flow and tissue repair. It is non-surgical and non-hormonal, and its use for vaginal treatment is off-label.
Is vaginal PRP the same as the O-Shot?
It is closely related. The O-Shot is a trademarked protocol that injects platelet-rich plasma into two vulvovaginal areas. Dr. Schroeder’s approach may add a third site in the G-spot region. All of these approaches use the same underlying treatment: your own concentrated platelets.
Is vaginal PRP safe?
Published studies generally report vaginal PRP as well tolerated, with mostly minor, short-lived side effects such as injection-site pain, tenderness, and light spotting. Because PRP comes from your own blood, there is no risk of an allergic reaction to a foreign substance. Infection and a lack of improvement are possible, and PRP is not appropriate for everyone.
Who should not get vaginal PRP?
Vaginal PRP is generally not appropriate for women with platelet or bleeding disorders, active pelvic infection, certain blood cancers, or anticoagulation that cannot be safely paused. Anyone with postmenopausal bleeding, a new mass, or unexplained pelvic pain needs a diagnosis before any cosmetic or regenerative treatment.
Can I combine PRP with FemTouch laser?
Yes, some patients combine PRP injections with FemTouch laser treatment when both tissue quality and dryness are concerns. The two work through different mechanisms. Dr. Schroeder recommends a combination only when your symptoms and history support it, and she explains the regulatory status of each option.
