PRP “down there” is being marketed for lichen sclerosus and sexual dysfunction.
Patients ask about it all the time.
The issue isn’t that it sounds unreasonable — it’s that the evidence isn’t there.
This is where medicine and marketing start to blur.

Why are doctors becoming influencers?
Because influencers are pretending to be doctors.
And patients deserve better information.

It isn’t. Evidence-based care exists — and it should be more accessible.

Excited to share our new paper in @JOGC_SOGC! We looked at vulvar self-exams in high-risk patients. Knowledge was low, but the good news—most were open to learning. Lots of potential to improve education and care. #WomensHealth #Gynecology
