Is your sex life lackluster compared to how it once was? Although it is normal to experience ebbs and flows in intimacy, having a healthy sex life is crucial to a long and happy marriage.
Whether you and your partner never seem to be in the mood at the same time or sexual dysfunction is getting in the way of mutual pleasure, a couples clinic may be able to help.
At Oklahoma Men’s Clinic in Oklahoma City, OK, we offer various treatments for couples that can help reignite the passion in your bedroom. Keep reading to learn how these unique treatments work and who they’re right for.
What Causes a Lull in a Couple’s Sex Life?
Whether you’ve been together for decades or just a few years, it’s completely normal to experience dry spells in the bedroom. However, if you have trouble breaking these dry spells, it’s important that you figure out what’s causing them.
Some of the most common reasons couples experience dry spells include:
- Low sex drive from either party
- External stressors
- Sexual dysfunction
- Certain medications
- Hormonal changes
- Relationship problems
It’s important to remember that pointing fingers at the other party doesn’t help anything. Look for solutions as a unified team with a shared goal: to make things better for everyone involved. If you suspect underlying relationship conflicts are causing your intimacy problems, it’s best to schedule some sessions with a couples therapist.
With that being said, we are eager to help happy and healthy couples who want to improve the overall quality of their sex life.
How Can a Couples Clinic Help?
Read on to learn about two of our treatments for couples that are designed to address the underlying issues impacting your sex life.
Awaken
Awaken is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment designed to treat acquired generalized hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in women who have not undergone menopause. It’s estimated that as many as 10% of women have HSDD, many of whom go undiagnosed.
Like many women, you may not realize you have HSDD because it does not impact your ability to have sex. However, it does greatly impact your overall desire and enjoyment.
If you have a chronically low sex drive that is not caused by medication or certain health conditions, Awaken might be right for you.
How It Works
Awaken injections contain a peptide called bremelanotide. This powerful peptide works by interacting with specific receptors in the brain to increase sexual desire.
These receptors, which are called melanocortin receptors, play a significant role in thinking and mood. By balancing these chemical messengers with Awaken, you could crave and enjoy intimacy again.
On-Demand Treatment
With Awaken, you do not have to stick to a specific treatment plan. Awaken is self-administered as needed. The injections come prepackaged and ready to be administered.
You can use Awaken up to twice a week to stimulate sexual desire. Simply inject the solution at least 45 minutes before intimacy to experience improved arousal and enjoyment. The effects of Awaken can last up to 10 hours, so you won’t feel rushed to get the deed done.
Awaken can be taken during the day or at night. When taken at night, many women still feel the effects of Awaken when they wake up in the morning. This may help you initiate sex when you usually otherwise wouldn’t.
No Alcohol Restrictions
You need to avoid drinking while taking many other medications, but Awaken injections do not negatively interact with alcohol. So you’re free to enjoy a glass or two of wine on a date night and still enjoy a night full of intimacy.
O-Shot
Many women struggle to achieve orgasm, both alone and with their partners. But the O-Shot is changing the game for women and couples everywhere. This aptly named injection can treat women struggling with low libido or sexual dysfunction.
The O-Shot uses a substance that is well-known in the cosmetic world for its powerful restorative and rejuvenating properties: platelet-rich plasma.
How Platelet-Rich Plasma Works
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a concentrated form of plasma that is derived from your own blood. Before treatment, we perform a routine blood draw to get the proper amount of blood. If you’ve ever donated blood or had any blood work done, you’re already familiar with this procedure.
Next, we separate the plasma (the liquid portion of your blood) and platelets from the hemoglobin and other solids. Your plasma and platelets contain vital proteins, hormones, vitamins, growth factors, and healing compounds that we concentrate to create a one-of-a-kind treatment solution.
What to Expect
Once we draw your blood and prepare the PRP solution, the real treatment begins. First, we gently clean the treatment area and administer a local anesthetic to maximize your comfort. Once you are properly anesthetized, we make a series of small injections around the vulva and vagina, including in the clitoris, labia, and G-spot.
After treatment, you may benefit from the following:
- Better orgasms
- More frequent orgasms
- An improvement in libido
- Enhanced sensitivity in your vagina and clitoris
- An improvement in vaginal lubrication
- Decreased wrinkling or sagging of your vulva
- An improvement in overall color
The effects of O-Shots can last up to two years, but many women choose to get a second shot after 6 to 12 months to prolong its effects.
