Women across the globe seek medical treatment to address various sexual health issues that are associated with having children or going through menopause. In fact, 40% of all women globally report issues with sexual health. These conditions can include loosening of the vagina, loss of sexual desire, and even a lack of natural lubrication. Dealing with these issues can often put strains on self confidence as well as marriages and relationships.

In the United States, 43% of women report some sort of sexual dysfunction. Women do have some treatment options available to help with many of the uncomfortable symptoms, including:

Leaking urine whenever sneezing, laughing, or jumping
Having loose skin around the vaginal area
Experiencing a decreased libido
Experience painful sexual intercourse
Having a lack of sensation in the vaginal area
Lacking sexual satisfaction
Not being able to hold urine in the bladder
Experiencing excessive dryness in the vaginal area
Having low self-esteem or lacking confidence

Specifically, women can get a shot for vaginal rejuvenation, which can help to alleviate some of the above symptoms. Sometimes however, in more serious cases, they may consider surgery. There are many different surgeries available, some of which are primarily aesthetic or appearance-based, such as:

Vaginoplasty: A surgical tightening or repairing of the vaginal canal
Labiaplasty: The reshaping of the labia
Monsplasty: The removal of fatty tissue that may be located in the pubic bone area
Clitoral Hood Reduction: Removing the extra tissue from the clitoris
Perineoplasty: Strengthening the space between the anus and vagina (perineum)
Vulvoplasty: The reshaping of the external genitalia area (vulvar area)

Unfortunately, any type of surgery on the vaginal area can be incredibly painful. Furthermore, it can require an extensive recovery period. As an alternative to receiving this type of vaginal treatment, some patients have turned to the vaginal rejuvenation O-Shot as an alternative treatment. While the O-Shot offers relief for some of the aforementioned symptoms, it does come with negative side effects as well.

Using the O-Shot For Vaginal Rejuvenation

Just over a decade ago, women across the globe began to turn to the rejuvenation O-Shot. This shot is specifically designed for vaginal rejuvenation. The O-Shot, also known as the orgasm shot, provides recipients with increased sexual pleasure. This is done by enhancing the sensitivity of the vaginal area. Additionally, it reduces urinary incontinence and increases natural lubricant within the vagina. These shots are designed to provide sexual fulfillment for patients.

Although many patients find this treatment to be beneficial, there are some instances where people experience adverse reactions. These include urgent or more frequent urination, pinching in the vaginal area, and pain or pressure during injection.

Over the years, the use of umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells has proven incredibly beneficial for women across the globe as an alternative to the O-Shot, without the adverse side effects. There have been several scientific studies conducted on the health benefits of stem cells, specifically umbilical cord-tissue derived ones. All of the studies have had promising results which indicate that these types of stem cells are emerging as an incredibly impactful treatment for a variety of health issues, including sexual health for both men and women.

To understand how the stem cells work to solve vaginal issues, it is important to understand what causes the symptoms, what umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells are exactly, and how they can help.

What are Umbilical Cord Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells?

Umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UCT-MSCs) are a subset of mesenchymal stem cells. Due to their ability to differentiate into various types of tissues such as bone, cartilage, and skin, UCT-MSCs have demonstrated that they hold promise in regenerative medicine.

Umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells have the ability to self-renew as different types of cells, so they work incredibly well in helping patients who suffer from a wide variety of health conditions. Over the past few years, UCT-MSCs have emerged as a promising alternative to the O-Shot.

How the O-Shot Works

The O-Shot is administered to women with the goal of providing relief for various symptoms they experience commonly. Here are some of the benefits that it purports to provide:

Enhancing libido and sexual desire
To increase vaginal sensitivity
Decrease urinary incontinence
Reduce or eliminate pain during intercourse
Enhance vulvar skin
Treat lichen sclerosus

The O-Shot is an injection of your own platelet-rich plasma into the vaginal area. This encourages stem cells to trigger healthy tissue growth which can provide many of the above benefits.

However, rather than undergoing this type of treatment, which can have unpleasant side effects, women are now able to receive these and other benefits through the use of UCT-MSCs. Treating these issues with umbilical cord tissue-derived stem cells is essentially a more direct and effective method of employing stem cells to alleviate women’s sexual health problems.

Using UCT-MSCs to Combat Infertility

According to a study published in 2022, the self-repairing and regeneration qualities of mesenchymal stem cells are incredibly beneficial when it comes to enhancing the function of the ovaries, raising the level of sex hormones in the recipient, increasing the number of follicles, and decreasing granulosa cell apoptotic rates. This makes it a promising treatment option.

Using UCT-MSCs to Enhance the Skin of the Vulva

The use of umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells is also a promising approach for the treatment of vulvar skin atrophy. Scientists found the use of UCT-MSCs to be effective in combating the decrease in estrogen levels that caused the thinning of the vaginal epithelium.

Mesenchymal stem cells are incredibly effective as a rejuvenation treatment due to their ability to promote new collagen in the affected area. Studies have shown that UC-MSCs not only increase the thickness of the skin, but also improve its elasticity and appearance. The UC-MSC-treated skin was also found to have higher levels of collagen and elastin than untreated skin.

Using UCT-MSCs to Decrease Urinary Incontinence

According to statistics, approximately 50% of adult women suffer from urinary incontinence. This is a condition that continues to worsen with age. When it comes to women over the age of 65, nearly 75% of them report the dreaded urine leakage.

Over the years, scientists have conducted several studies pertaining to the use of umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells to help decrease urinary incontinence across the world. One study published in 2022 showed that this treatment has promising results when it comes to helping women who suffer from this condition.

Though more research should be funded, it is undeniable that UCT-MSCs can cause an improvement in the function of the external and internal sphincters as well as the blood supply to the sphincter muscle. This is promising for addressing urinary incontinence in women.

Using UCT-MSCs to Treat Lichen Sclerosus

Lichen sclerosus is a chronic skin disorder that is rare. This condition typically affects the anal and genital area and can make sexual intercourse incredibly painful. Patients who suffer from this condition often experience various conditions, like:

Smooth white patches on their skin
Pain and discomfort
Redness
Itching
Bleeding or blistering
Wrinkled and blotchy patches
Tearing and bleeding

Umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells have been proven effective when it comes to treating patients who suffer from lichen sclerosus due to their ability to replace damaged, missing, or lost tissues that have been affected in the area.

Improving Sexual Pleasure and Vaginal Health

The use of this umbilical cord tissue stem cell technology to address sexual dysfunctions, including poor sex drive and energy, is just getting started. Stem cell therapy is used to stimulate the body's inherent capacity for repair and regeneration. While a lack of blood flow to the genitalia can make intercourse uncomfortable or unpleasant, treatment aims to improve blood circulation to the area which can improve a wide variety of symptoms associated with vaginal health.

In addition, studies found that epithelial thickness was increased by mesenchymal stem cells in a rat model study surrounding vaginal atrophy caused by menopause. The use of UCT-MSCs resulted in an upregulation of the estrogen receptors, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and its receptor in the vaginal epithelium and connective tissue. All of these results are incredibly promising when it comes to promoting vaginal health and increasing sexual pleasure in women who suffer from these problems.

In conclusion, there are several ways that stem cells are effective when it comes to restoring sexual function in women who suffer from these types of conditions. These include:

Activating the t-cells in order to secrete necessary proteins to the affected area
Opening up the blood vessels to improve circulation in blood flow
Whenever possible, forming new blood vessels to further improve circulation
Inhibiting inflammation associated with painful sexual intercourse and other chronic conditions
Stimulating the cells within the vaginal area
Promoting cell regeneration in the affected area

Using umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells to achieve vaginal rejuvenation is a safe and effective way of restoring the appearance, health, and strength of a woman's reproductive organs. With minimal side effects and a high success rate, it provides women with an opportunity to take control of their reproductive health.
