Study Details

Brief summary:

This randomized, single-blinded, sham-controlled trial evaluates whether a single injection of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into the distal anterior vaginal wall improves sexual function in women with sexual dysfunction. Sixty participants with a Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) total score of 26.5 or lower are randomized 1:1 to PRP injection or sterile saline injection. Sexual function, sexual distress, global impression of change, and urinary incontinence symptoms are assessed at baseline, 6 weeks, and 6 months after injection.

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: Participants receiving a PRP Injection

Participants will receive a single injection of 4-5cc autologous platelet-rich plasma into the distal anterior vaginal wall after blood draw.

sham comparator: Participants receiving Saline Injection

Participants will receive a single injection of 4-5cc sterile saline into the distal anterior vaginal wall after blood draw (blood sample will be discarded).

Interventions

Autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Injection

Whole blood draw of 40 mL is processed by double-spin centrifugation; 4 cc PRP is injected with a 25-guage needle just deep to the epithelium of the distal anterior vaginal wall, about 3 cm from the urethral meatus, after topical lidocaine.

Sterile saline injection

4-5cc sterile saline injected at the same location, depth, and technique as the PRP arm, following a blood draw.

Primary outcome measure

  • Change in total score of The Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) [ Time Frame: Baseline, 6 weeks, and 6 months after injection. ]
