Sexual Health
At Surya Medicine, we understand that sexual health can be an important part of feeling vital and healthy. Unfortunately, as we age, sexual function can diminish for many reasons. Enter Regenerative Medicine.
A substance known as Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is found in our blood and can be isolated for use in many medical applications. PRP contains platelet-derived growth factors that stimulate our own stem cells as well as stimulate the growth of new vessels in the area of injection.
For over 10 years, a Regenerative Medicine procedure using PRP has been performed to treat sexual dysfunction and urinary incontinence. During this painless procedure, PRP (prepared using an FDA approved kit) is injected into the vaginal wall and clitoris. Full effects are noticeable three months after the procedure, and more than one procedure maybe necessary. Results last one year on average and possibly longer.
As advances in Gynecologic applications of Regenerative Medicine emerge, we are excited to offer them at Surya Medicine. Another promising application is in the treatment of a painful condition known as Lichen Sclerosus. PRP is being used effectively in the treatment of Lichen Sclerosus.
