PRP in gynecology and urology: a promising therapeutic option for women and men

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is an innovative therapy that has gained increasing importance in various medical specialties in recent years. Originally known for its use in orthopedics, trichology and aesthetic medicine, PRP is now conquering the fields of gynecology and urology. In this blog, we will explore the promising applications of PRP in women's and men's health.

What is PRP?

PRP is a regenerative therapy that uses the body's own blood plasma, which contains a high concentration of platelets. These platelets are rich in growth factors and cytokines that support tissue regeneration and healing.

PRP is administered through a simple blood draw with PRP tubes from the patient and then processed in a special procedure to increase the concentration of growth factors.

Application of PRP in gynecology

Vaginal regeneration

PRP is used to treat vaginal atrophy, which often occurs in postmenopausal women. PRP injections promote vaginal tissue regeneration, improve blood flow and elasticity, and reduce vaginal dryness and pain during intercourse.

Some women suffer from vaginal dryness or atrophy due to hormonal fluctuations or other factors. PRP injections can promote blood flow and tissue regeneration, helping to relieve these symptoms.

Urinary incontinence treatment

PRP can be injected into the pelvic floor muscles to promote muscle strengthening and regeneration to improve urinary incontinence.

Reduction of birth scars

PRP can help treat perineal tears or postpartum birth scars by promoting healing and improving the appearance of the scars.

Lichen sclerosus

For this chronic skin condition, PRP can be used as a treatment to help the healing process and relieve symptoms.
