The P-Shot (Platelet Rich Plasma) for ED

The P-Shot (Platelet Rich Plasma) for ED

What is platelet rich plasma (PRP)?

Blood is composed of many components: red cells, white cells and platelets. Platelets contain proteins called growth factors which stimulate healing by recruiting stem cells and other agents to a particular area of the body. When platelets are concentrated in this manner it’s referred to as platelet rich plasma, or PRP

How does it work?

Platelet rich plasma is thought to work by accelerating the healing of the penis and insufficiency of blood vessels brought on by the many causes of erectile dysfunction. It can be used with or without low intensity shockwave therapy.  PRP does this by releasing its platelet growth factors which play an important role in the immune response, making of new blood vessels called angiogenesis, recruiting stem cells and the healing of tissue.

What Should I expect?

Platelet Rich Plasma can lead to improved firmness, sensation and quality of the erection. PRP is non-allergenic, meaning you won’t have to worry about side effects. 

*Some men may not be candidates for PRP therapy and not every man will benefit from therapy
