Can I use my JoyLux device after an OShot?

Question

Hi.. I’m considering the OShot. I’m 50 and I use vaginal estrogen for dryness. I also use the JoyLux device . After I get the OShot, should I discontinue using the JoyLux ? I only use it about 1x per week for maintenance. I also get cortisone injections in my hip.. I know it’s localized, but will that have an effect on the effectiveness of the OShot? Thank You in Advance

Hello ,You can continue to use joylux device after o-shot. There is no decrease in effectiveness of o-shot.

It’s a great question, and giving your body time to settle between treatments can be a smart move. Personally, I’d recommend waiting around five weeks between the O-Shot and using your JoyLux device again. This way, you let the O-Shot’s effects settle in fully before adding other treatments.

As for the cortisone injections, they’re localized and generally don’t interfere with the O-Shot, but giving yourself a little time in between can also help you track the benefits more clearly from each treatment.

The O-Shot, or Orgasm Shot, is a procedure that involves injecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into the vaginal tissue with the goal of improving sexual pleasure, sensitivity, and treating certain sexual health concerns. The PRP is obtained from your own blood and contains growth factors that are believed to promote tissue regeneration and improved blood flow.
Using vaginal estrogen and the JoyLux device for vaginal dryness and maintenance can be part of your overall vaginal health regimen. Vaginal estrogen helps with the thinning of the vaginal skin as a result of declining hormone levels in menopause and perimenopause. JoyLux device, is an at home vaginal rejuvenation device that uses gentle heat and light therapy to stimulate collagen production and synergize well with the O-shot and the estrogen to promote vaginal health.As for cortisone injections in your hip, localized treatments like this should generally have minimal impact on the effectiveness of the O-Shot. However, the timing of the O-Shot after receiving cortisone is not something that has a lot of data. I would leave this to the discretion of whichever expert you see in consultation for this procedure.
