If you’re suffering from erectile dysfunction, you’re definitely not alone. In fact, erectile dysfunction affects about 50% of men to some degree. As men age, blood flow to the penis decreases, making it harder to achieve and maintain an erection.
Many people believe that you either have to live with erectile dysfunction or take pills to fix the issue. Our physicians at Amy Brenner, MD & Associates disagree. After performing numerous successful P-Shot® treatments, we’ve found that it is a natural solution to help men take back their sexual function.
Read on to learn how the P-Shot® in Cincinnati can treat erectile dysfunction.
The causes of erectile dysfunction
Some of our patients believe that the P-Shot® in Cincinnati won’t help them because of the source of their erectile dysfunction. Although it’s true that results will vary from person to person, the P-Shot® treatment can help a lot of men with their erectile dysfunction problems regardless of where it came from.
It can be tricky to narrow down why someone has erectile dysfunction, especially because the source can be both physical and psychological. But there are common causes that include:
- Endocrine diseases that affect hormone levels
- Neurological diseases such as Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s disease
- Depression and anxiety
- Performance anxiety
- Tobacco use and smoking
- Alcohol abuse
- Certain prescription medications
- Heart disease that could affect blood flow
- Obesity
- Clogged blood vessels
- Sleep disorders
What is platelet-rich plasma (PRP)?
We can’t talk about the P-Shot® without explaining what PRP is. Simply speaking, PRP is one of the most advanced, yet natural ways to regenerate and accelerate tissue repair. Other than fast healing, PRP has major growth factors that can enhance the functions of other cells they come in contact with.
The great thing about PRP is that it can be isolated from our blood and injected into other parts of our bodies. As a result, that area benefits from cellular growth and the formation of new blood vessels and nerve endings.
As a result, a P-Shot® procedure not only helps increase blood flow to the penis to fix erectile dysfunction, it can also enlarge the penis and heighten pleasure during sex.
How an P-Shot® in Cincinnati procedure works
Getting an P-Shot® is a four-step process that is quick and easy.
Step one: We will draw a vial of blood. When performed by someone with experience, you should only feel a quick prick.
Step two: Your blood will then be circulated through a centrifuge to isolate the PRP. Platelets “activate” to release at least eight types of growth factors that restore tissue. The PRP is then separated into syringes.
Step three: The injections themselves are very quick; expect them to be done within a few minutes. A medical professional will inject your platelet-rich plasma into your penis using a distribution technique to optimize results.
Step four: A penis pump is used (self-administered) for 15 minutes to further encourage blood flow.
It usually takes around 12 weeks to see the full results. But once that 12-week mark hits, about 60% of men improve after just one P-Shot® treatment, and after two treatments, that number jumps to 85%!
