Platelet Rich Plasma for Genitourinary Syndrome in Breast Cancer Patients
Study Summary
This trial is to test the possible benefits and side effects of platelet-rich plasma for treating menopause symptoms in breast cancer patients. Platelet-rich plasma is made by taking 4-6 tablespoons of blood from a patient's arm and spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the plasma and red blood cells. The platelet-rich plasma is then injected into the patient.
