The P-Shot, PRP, and Your Penis


The P-Shot, short for Priapus Shot, is an experimental treatment aimed at addressing erectile dysfunction and related conditions. It involves extracting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from your blood and injecting it into your penis. This procedure is intended to stimulate tissue growth and potentially improve erectile function.
However, there is limited scientific research supporting the specific claims associated with the P-Shot. Before considering this treatment, it's essential to understand its uses and potential outcomes

What is the P-Shot used for?

The P-Shot is based on PRP therapy, which is commonly used for muscle and joint injuries and explored for treating various health conditions. Some of the conditions the P-Shot has been used for include:
• Erectile dysfunction (ED)
• Lichen sclerosus
• Peyronie’s disease (a condition causing penile curvature)
• Penis enhancement
• Overall sexual function enhancement

Does it work?

PRP therapy involves injecting platelets from your blood into targeted areas, leveraging their role in wound healing and clotting mechanisms. While the P-Shot may aid in reclaiming biological responses to stimuli, its effectiveness in addressing the root causes of sexual dysfunction, such as orgasms, remains uncertain. Additionally, the benefits attributed to the P-Shot, including improved sexual performance, increased blood flow, and nerve sensation, may also be influenced by other therapies and the placebo effect.

Uses and Effects:


• Treatment for ED
• Improvement in blood flow and nerve sensation
• Enhanced orgasms
• Increased stamina during sex
• Heightened libido and sensitivity
• Complementary to testosterone therapy
• Assistance with sexual function after prostate surgery
• Potential for increased penile size

What we know about PRP for sexual function

Research on PRP therapy for male sexual dysfunction is still limited, and more studies are needed to ascertain its benefits, safety, and risks thoroughly.
What to expect during your appointment
The P-Shot is typically performed as an outpatient procedure, allowing patients to return home the same day. During the procedure:
1. Topical numbing agents are applied to the genital area, followed by a local anesthetic to minimize discomfort.
2. A blood sample is collected and processed in a centrifuge to isolate PRP.
3. The PRP is then injected into specific areas of the penis.
4. Some patients may also be provided with a penis pump to aid in blood flow stimulation.

Potential side effects and complications

Minor side effects such as swelling, redness, and bruising are common after the procedure and usually resolve within a week. Rare complications may include infection, scarring, or cold sore outbreaks in individuals with a history of herpes simplex virus.

When should you expect results?

Individual responses to the treatment vary, with some experiencing immediate effects, while others may require multiple treatments over several months to notice significant improvements. Responses to treatment typically fall into three categories: early responders (within 24 hours), typical responders (within three to six treatments), and late responders (within three to four months).

Frequently asked questions

• The cost of the P-Shot is typically discussed during the initial consultation, as it is an elective procedure not covered by insurance.
• There is no specific preparation required for the procedure, although maintaining overall health and ensuring healthy blood, plasma, and platelet levels are recommended.
• Recovery is usually quick, allowing patients to resume normal activities within a day or two. However, it's advisable to avoid sexual intercourse and intense physical activity for a brief period following the procedure to prevent irritation or infection at the injection sites."
