    Pain with intimacy is a symptom, not the whole diagnosis

    Dyspareunia can feel like burning, tearing, stinging, pressure, or deep pelvic pain during intimacy. Some patients notice discomfort only with penetration, while others have lingering irritation afterward.

    Dryness, low estrogen, pelvic floor tension, endometriosis, infection, vulvar skin conditions, and scar tissue can all contribute. Because the causes vary, meaningful treatment starts with identifying what is driving the pain rather than jumping straight to a procedure.

    How the O-Shot may support comfort

    The O-Shot uses platelet-rich plasma prepared from your own blood. Platelets contain growth factors that may support tissue repair, blood flow, collagen remodeling, and resilience in targeted vulvovaginal tissues. For patients whose pain appears tied to dryness, tissue fragility, or reduced tissue quality, PRP may be discussed as a regenerative adjunct. It does not replace lubricants, pelvic floor therapy, infection treatment, hormone-based care, or evaluation for deeper pelvic causes. A careful exam helps determine whether regenerative care makes sense or whether the better next step is pelvic floor therapy, skin treatment, medication, or gynecologic workup.

    What to expect before deciding on treatment

    1Cause-focused evaluation

    Your clinician should review where the pain occurs, when it started, how hormones, childbirth, medications, or prior procedures may be affecting comfort, and whether pelvic floor dysfunction is present.

    2Discussion of first-line care

    Lubricants, moisturizers, low-dose vaginal estrogen, pelvic floor therapy, and treatment of infections or skin conditions often come first and should be reviewed before procedural care.

    3PRP treatment if appropriate

    If the O-Shot is a good fit, a blood draw is processed into PRP and injected in targeted tissues during an office visit. Topical numbing is often used for comfort.

    4Reassessment over time

    Any improvement is usually gradual. Follow-up should review comfort, tissue response, and whether additional therapies are still needed to address the full cause of pain.
