What Happens After an O-Shot Treatment?

After an O-Shot procedure you may return to normal activity as tolerated immediately after the procedure, and you may engage in sexual activity after your procedure.

How Long Will The O-Shot's Results Last?

You may experience results immediately after an orgasm shot, but full results are usually enjoyed after 3 months. The O-Shot can last up to 3 years or longer in women. However, on average, women repeat the procedure every 18 months.

What Are O-Shot's Complications?

You may experience mild redness, swelling and/or numbness for the first few days to one week. Real results can be expected at 4 weeks after all swelling is resolved.

Does The O-Shot Help With Lichen Sclerosus?

In a recent study, researchers determined that women suffering with Lichen Sclerosus showed improvement when treated with the O-Shot® procedure. Women reported statistically significant improvement in symptoms and pathologists observed a decrease in inflammation.

What Is The O-Shot & What Can I Expect?

What Is The O-Shot?

The O-Shot®, short for "Orgasm Shot," is an innovative solution for women seeking vaginal rejuvenation and improved sexual health. It is a revolutionary, drug-free procedure that harnesses the power of your body's natural healing processes by using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from your own blood to stimulate tissue regeneration and improve sexual function.

As women age, hormonal changes, particularly declining estrogen levels, can lead to a range of uncomfortable symptoms . These may include vaginal dryness, itching, reduced sexual desire, and even discomfort during intimacy, which can impact overall satisfaction and well-being.

While many women turn to traditional options like creams or hormone therapies to address these concerns, the O-Shot® offers a unique, regenerative approach.

Sexual health is a vital component of a fulfilling adult life, yet various factors, from aging to stress, can contribute to diminished libido, difficulty with arousal, or even pain during intercourse.

Patients report the following improvements from O-Shot®

Increased vaginal moisture, sensitivity and sensation
Improved orgasmic function
Increased sexual desire
Better sexual response
Reduced urinary leakage
Less pain during sex

Happy woman podering the difference between O-Shot and G-Shot

What’s The Difference Between O-Shot and G-Shot?

You may hear the terms O-Shot and G-Shot used as treatments for vaginal rejuvenation. While both are effective options, learn how they are different.

How Does The O-Shot Work?

The O-Shot® procedure is a fast, minimally invasive treatment that typically takes less than 20 minutes to complete. The process begins with drawing a small sample of blood from the patient’s arm. This blood is then processed in a centrifuge, which separates the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from the red blood cells.

Within the body, platelets clot and repair damaged blood vessels by clinging together and creating a clump or plug that prevents too much blood from leaving the body. However, platelets also contain a number of growth-stimulating factors and proteins that are ideal for rejuvenation treatments. While in the blood, platelets are not concentrated enough to help in these treatments, but centrifuges separate platelets and plasma from the blood and significantly increase this concentration. After the centrifuge is finished, the resulting solutions are red blood cells in one end of the tube and PRP on the other. This is the O-Shot.

Once the PRP is prepared, it is carefully extracted into a syringe. To ensure comfort, a numbing agent is applied to the treatment area beforehand. The PRP is then skillfully injected into a specific area above the clitoris and, if needed, other targeted regions to maximize the regenerative effects. Most patients report minimal discomfort and appreciate the quick recovery associated with the procedure.

This simple process activates growth factors that stimulate the regeneration of healthier vaginal tissue.

How Can the O-Shot Help Me?

Since PRP is rich in platelets and growth factors, the plasma is extremely effective in repairing soft tissue around scars, fine lines, and general skin imperfections. As a woman ages, her vagina naturally loses elasticity and moisture, partially due to lower reproductive hormone levels. This results in dry and uncomfortable intercourse and a loss of sensitivity within the vagina, often leading to light bleeding and general discomfort. With the O Shot, these symptoms are directly treated with a targeted shot of healing proteins from PRP.

As the platelets promote healing and growth within your clitoral and vaginal tissue, your vagina will have increased natural moisture and lubrication. This is very important for women who may have experienced painful intercourse in the past since dryness is a common side effect of decreased estrogen levels and can lead to light bleeding during sex. With an increase in natural moisture, women experience less pain and discomfort while having intercourse.
An increase in lubrication not only assists with pain during sex. It also helps with the vagina’s overall sensitivity, as dryness can lead to a loss of stimulation and feeling. Because the O Shot directly targets the soft tissues and skin inside and outside of the vagina, growth proteins begin the rejuvenation process quickly. This causes many women who previously had difficulty feeling aroused or orgasm during sex to report a significant change due to the O- Shot procedure.
Vaginal Health. Many women experience decreased sexual desire due to hormonal changes, mood swings leading to more severe depression or anxiety, or medical complications. Fortunately, the O-Shot promotes a strong change in arousal, lax or loose skin, and natural moisture that allows most women to have a healthier sex life.

Despite this, the O-Shot is not a replacement or treatment for mental health issues such as depression or stress. If you’ve experienced less arousal due to mental health concerns, speak to a licensed professional to treat these concerns.

Benefits of the O-Shot

Many women experience significant improvements in their sexual health and overall quality of life after receiving the O Shot. Benefits include:

Increased libido and sexual desire
Stronger and more frequent orgasms
Greater clitoral sensitivity and arousal
Improved ability to achieve vaginal orgasms
Increased natural lubrication
Reduced urinary incontinence
Decreased pain during intercourse

Improved symptoms of lichen sclerosus. A study published in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology in 2019 A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial of autologous platelet-rich plasma intradermal injections for the treatment of vulvar lichen sclerosus

Additionally, a case report published in Case Reports in Women's Health in 2018 documented the use of PRP for treating vulvar lichen sclerosus in a premenopausal woman, noting clinical improvement in symptoms.

Who Is The O-Shot For?

The O-Shot can benefit a wide range of women, including:

Those experiencing decreased sexual sensation (affecting up to 50% of women)
Women with low sexual desire (affecting approximately 75% of women)
Those seeking to enhance their overall sexual experience
Women experiencing urinary incontinence
Those with pain during intercourse (dyspareunia)
Women concerned about vaginal laxity

How Long do the O-Shot Effects Last?

The O-Shot is a fast procedure that is generally complete in minutes with little to no downtime required before or after the session. For most women, the O-Shot significantly improves their sexual health for 14 to 18 months before another procedure is required. Depending on your medical needs, your physician may recommend more than one administration of the O-Shot. These are typically spaced out over eight weeks to ensure another session is required to feel the full effects and benefits of the O-Shot.

While some women report feeling benefits of the O-Shot immediately after completing the procedure, other women don’t experience the full range of benefits for a couple of weeks after the initial session. If you feel you need more than one O-Shot session, talk to your doctor about your options and needs.

Although the O-Shot can last up to 3 years or longer in women, on average, women repeat the procedure every 18 months.

Complications or Side Effects of the O-Shot

Receiving the O-Shot is a generally pain-free operation. There is a slight pricking sensation when blood is removed from the vein, and some women report a similar feeling as the O-Shot is administered, but this sensation quickly goes away. We will numb both the clitoris and any areas of the vagina where the shot will be administered, which largely prevents any painful experiences.

Side effects are limited since the PRP being injected is the patient’s genetic material and not a drug or unknown substance. Some women have reported mild swelling or redness at the injection site in the first few days immediately following the procedure, but this is a rare occurrence.

CAN THE O-SHOT BE COMBINED WITH OTHER TREATMENTS FOR BETTER RESULTS?

Yes, the O-Shot can be effectively combined with other treatments at Nore Women’s Health for enhanced results in vaginal rejuvenation and sexual wellness:

ThermiVa: This is the most popular combination with the O-Shot. ThermiVa uses radiofrequency energy to tighten vaginal tissues, while the O-Shot stimulates tissue regeneration. Together, they can provide more comprehensive improvements in sexual satisfaction and vaginal tightening.

BHRT Hormone therapy: This can be used alongside the O-Shot to address hormonal imbalances that may affect sexual health.

Combining treatments allows for a more tailored approach to addressing individual concerns and can potentially lead to more significant improvements in intimate health and sexual function.

HOW QUICKLY CAN I EXPECT TO SEE RESULTS FROM THE O-SHOT?

The timeline for experiencing results from the O-Shot can vary, but many women notice improvements relatively quickly:

Some women report an immediate increase in sexual desire and pleasure after the procedure.
Most women begin to experience heightened sensation within 3-7 days after treatment.
New tissue development occurs over the next 3-9 weeks.
Full results typically manifest around 3 months after the procedure.

It's important to note that individual experiences may differ. While some patients may see rapid improvements, others might require more time to notice the full effects. If initial results are not as pronounced as desired, your doctor may recommend a follow-up treatment after 8 weeks.

The benefits of the O-Shot can last between 14-18 months on average, with some women experiencing effects for up to 3 years. Many patients choose to repeat the procedure every 18 months to maintain their results.

HOW DOES THE O-SHOT COMPARE TO OTHER VAGINAL REJUVENATION TREATMENTS?

The O-Shot differs from other vaginal rejuvenation treatments in several key ways:

Mechanism of action: The O-Shot uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from the patient's own blood to stimulate tissue regeneration. In contrast, treatments like ThermiVa use radiofrequency energy to trigger collagen production.

Treatment areas: The O-Shot is injected into specific areas near the clitoris and upper vagina, while other treatments like ThermiVa target the entire vaginal canal.

Composition: The O-Shot utilizes natural PRP, whereas some treatments like the G-Shot use collagen fillers.

Duration of effects: O-Shot results typically last up to one year, with the possibility of repeating treatment after 8 weeks. Other treatments may have different durations of effectiveness.

Benefits: While the O-Shot primarily focuses on enhancing sexual function and sensation, treatments like ThermiVa may also address issues such as vaginal laxity and mild urinary incontinence.

Procedure time: The O-Shot procedure takes about 30-60 minutes, which is comparable to other treatments like ThermiVa.

Downtime: Both the O-Shot and other non-surgical rejuvenation treatments generally require minimal to no downtime.

Combination potential: The O-Shot can be combined with other treatments like ThermiVa or hormone therapy for more comprehensive results.

HOW MANY O-SHOT TREATMENTS ARE TYPICALLY NEEDED FOR OPTIMAL RESULTS?

The number of O-Shot treatments needed for optimal results can vary depending on the individual, but typically:

Many women experience significant improvements after just a single O-Shot treatment.

Some women may benefit from multiple treatments to achieve or maintain their desired results.

Up to three O-Shot treatments may be recommended to achieve optimal outcomes for some patients.

Follow-up treatments are often suggested every 6-18 months to maintain results, with many women opting for annual treatments.

If initial results are not satisfactory, a second treatment can be administered as early as 8 weeks after the first.

The exact number of treatments needed depends on factors like age, individual response, and specific concerns being addressed. Your healthcare provider can create a personalized treatment plan based on your unique needs and goals.
