“Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy: A Revolutionary Solution for Men’s Sexual Dysfunction”

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy has emerged as a potential treatment option for men who are experiencing occasional or chronic sexual dysfunction, especially when medications and other treatments have had limited success. This therapy offers hope to the 1 in 3 men over the age of 40 who may be dealing with reduced sensation or function due to various factors such as aging, prostate cancer, an enlarged prostate, surgery, diabetes, or medication side effects.

PRP therapy is a simple and safe procedure that does not require surgery. It involves isolating growth factors from the patient’s own blood, which are known as platelet-rich plasma. These growth factors are then injected into specific areas to target erectile dysfunction and improve various aspects of sexual function.

The primary goal of PRP therapy for erectile dysfunction is to increase blood flow, enhance firmness and sensation, and potentially stimulate improvements in length and girth. The growth factors present in the platelet-rich plasma are believed to help rejuvenate and repair tissues, promote the growth of new blood vessels, and enhance overall sexual function.


How Does the PRP Injection for Men’s Sexual Health Treatment Work?

The procedure you are referring to involves extracting a small quantity of blood from the arm and then placing it in a centrifuge. The centrifuge spins the blood for approximately 10 minutes, causing it to separate into platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-poor plasma (PPP). The PRP, which contains a higher concentration of platelets, is collected from the tube. It is then reintroduced into the penis through injections. The claimed purpose of this procedure is to enhance blood flow and potentially give the appearance of a larger and more rejuvenated penis.


What Are the Common Benefits to PRP Shots? 

  • Increased strength of erections and firmness: The injection of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into the penis is believed to enhance blood flow, which can potentially lead to stronger and firmer erections.
  • Increased sexual ability and stamina: By improving blood circulation and potentially increasing sensation, the procedure aims to enhance sexual ability and stamina.
  • Possible increased length and girth: The procedure suggests a potential increase in penis size, with an average reported range of 10-20% in length and girth.
  • Increased sensation: The improved blood flow resulting from the procedure may potentially heighten sensitivity and increase sensation during sexual activity.
  • Increased circulation and blood flow: The injection of PRP is intended to stimulate blood flow, which can have various positive effects on sexual health and overall penile function.
  • Possible improvement in urinary incontinence and prostate issues: While not directly related to sexual function, some proponents claim that the procedure may provide benefits for urinary incontinence and certain prostate issues.
  • Enhanced efficacy of other therapies: It is suggested that the procedure may improve the effectiveness of other treatments such as Cialis or Viagra for individuals who still require these medications.
  • Straightening of the penis: Some individuals with conditions like Peyronie’s disease, which causes penile curvature, may experience straightening as a potential benefit of the procedure.

How Fast will PRP Injections Help My Conditions?

Patients can leave the office and resume their normal activities immediately after the injection. While some patients experience immediate results, others may take approximately 3 weeks. It may take a few weeks to observe noticeable increases in size. It is important to discuss the likelihood of success with your practitioner as some individuals may not notice any changes. While some men may immediately experience an increase in sexual function, desire, and pleasure, it typically takes 8-12 weeks to notice the most significant difference.


How Long Should these Men’s Sexual Health Treatments Last?

On average, the results of PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatments for men’s sexual health can last up to 18 months. In some cases, patients may require a second injection treatment within 6 to 12 months after the initial treatment to maintain the effects. If a second injection is needed, it is typically performed 4 to 8 weeks after the original injection to enhance the overall outcomes.


“Safe and Effective: PRP Procedure Provides Quick Recovery and Promotes Natural Healing”

Since the PRP serum is derived from the patient’s own blood, there is little risk of an allergic reaction, making it a safe option. Additionally, there are no known side effects associated with the procedure, further ensuring its overall safety profile.

The PRP procedure itself is relatively simple and convenient, taking approximately 30 minutes to complete. Patients can undergo the procedure during a visit to the office without the need for extended hospital stays or invasive surgeries. This not only saves time but also minimizes any potential disruption to daily activities.

One of the advantages of the PRP procedure is that it requires little to no downtime. After the treatment, patients can typically resume their regular routines immediately, without any significant restrictions. This allows individuals to quickly return to work, hobbies, and other commitments without major interruptions.


Who Should NOT Get Men’s PRP?

Active Infections: If you have an active infection in the area that would be treated with PRP, such as a sexually transmitted infection (STI) or a urinary tract infection (UTI), it is generally advisable to postpone PRP treatments until the infection is resolved.

Blood Disorders and Medications: Individuals with bleeding disorders, clotting disorders, or those taking anticoagulant medications (blood thinners) may not be suitable candidates for PRP treatments. These conditions can increase the risk of excessive bleeding or interfere with the clotting process during or after the treatment.

Cancer or Active Cancer Treatment: If you have a history of cancer or are currently undergoing cancer treatment, it is typically recommended to avoid PRP treatments. This precaution is taken to avoid potential stimulation of cancer cell growth.
