Time to restore confidence in erectile problems: P-Shot therapy
Among the treatments that have recently generated excitement for impotence and erectile dysfunction in men, PRP therapy applied into the penis (P-Shot) comes first. The essence of the treatment, also known as the P-Shot, is that repairing and regenerating factors obtained from the person's own blood are injected into damaged areas of the body so that the body repairs itself.
Indeed, this treatment method has been widely used for many years to obtain better results in hair transplantation, in physiotherapy through injections into the knee to help cartilage repair itself more easily, and in plastic surgery to achieve more effective results. These treatments, which harness the body's own ability to repair itself, deliver pleasing results.
Is erectile dysfunction common in men?
As a general rule, erectile problems are seen in 40% of men aged 40 and 70% of men aged 70. These rates are indeed very high, yet because the subject wounds male pride it cannot be voiced comfortably. Professional support sought on this matter is less than one would think.
What are the causes of erectile dysfunction?
The most common causes are diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidney disease and being overweight. In addition, psychological problems that threaten the patient's general health also cause erectile problems.
What are the treatment options for erectile dysfunction?
The most commonly used treatments are oral tablets, drugs injected into the penis, external shockwave therapy or, as the last option, a penile prosthesis. Having to take medication every day or inject a drug into the penis before intercourse can shake a man's confidence. In recent years, external shockwave therapy to the penis has become a treatment option whose effectiveness can reach 70%.
Why are PRP and the P-Shot generating excitement?
This treatment method has been widely used for erectile dysfunction in men in the United States for the last three years. The aim of the treatment is to start a self-repair process in the penis by injecting platelets obtained from the person's own blood, which have body-repairing properties, into the penis. PRP therapy is already used widely and safely in hair transplantation, orthopaedics, dermatology and plastic surgery.
In P-Shot therapy, thanks to the regenerative properties of the platelets injected into the damaged areas of the spongy tissue that produces erection in the penis, the tissue repairs itself and becomes healthier. After all, the main factor in erectile dysfunction is the reduced elasticity of these tissues and their failure to fill sufficiently with blood.
How is the P-Shot applied?
In P-Shot therapy, after the person's own blood is drawn and the body-regenerating factors are separated from it, the prepared mixture is injected into the penis. Depending on the person's needs, 3 to 4 sessions are applied and one month is allowed for the full effect to develop. Because the tissues regenerate themselves, the effect of this treatment is expected to be more lasting than other treatments. After 6 months one more session is added to increase the effectiveness of the treatment.
P-Shot therapy has begun to take its place in treatment for a comfortable sex life by enabling the penile tissues to regenerate themselves in erectile dysfunction, a problem that demoralises men and reduces their quality of life.
P-Shot therapy is based on the principle of tissue self-renewal ahead of stem cell therapy; it is a treatment option that is very new in our country and has been used worldwide for three years as a root solution to erectile dysfunction.
