O-Shot vs. Traditional Medications: Which Is Better for Female Libido?

Low stamina and reduced sexual drive can be side effects of chronic stress, conditions that treatments like the O-Shot® may help address by promoting sexual wellness and rejuvenation

Is your sex drive not what it used to be? You’re not alone. Many women experience a decrease in libido due to hormonal shifts, stress, or age. Traditional medications have been the go-to solution, but the O-Shot offers a newer, more natural option. So, which is better?

At Dr. Sharon Aesthetics Wellness & IV Drip Bar in Houston, TX, board-certified OB-GYN Dr. Sharon Smith brings over 15 years of experience in women’s health and surgery. A Temple University School of Medicine graduate, she also completed her OB-GYN residency at Long Island Jewish Hospital in New York. Today, she combines advanced PRP training and aesthetic expertise to help patients explore non-surgical solutions. 

How the O-Shot Compares to Prescription Libido Medications

Medications for female libido often act on the brain or hormones, while the O-Shot works locally to stimulate arousal. Here’s how the two approaches differ:

  • Mechanism of action: Pills affect brain chemistry or hormone levels. The O-Shot uses PRP to rejuvenate tissue and improve sensitivity.
  • Side effects: Medications can cause mood swings, nausea, or headaches. The O-Shot uses your blood, so adverse reactions are rare.
  • Treatment duration: Pills require consistent use. The O-Shot may offer benefits for up to a year.
  • Convenience: The O-Shot is a quick office procedure. Medications may take weeks to become effective.

Women seeking fewer systemic side effects often prefer the O-Shot as a direct, natural solution.

Benefits of PRP for Female Sexual Wellness

The O-Shot uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to promote healing in intimate areas. PRP is rich in growth factors that encourage blood flow and nerve regeneration. The result is increased arousal and satisfaction. Here’s what many women experience:

  • Increased sensitivity: Better circulation can enhance pleasure and orgasm.
  • Improved lubrication: Reduced dryness makes intimacy more comfortable.
  • Less pain during intercourse: Healing effects ease vaginal discomfort.
  • Reduced urinary incontinence: Stronger tissue helps minimize leakage.

For women seeking sexual wellness without hormones or chemicals, PRP offers an appealing option.
