The Specifics


What is an P-shot?

A P-shot is a non-surgical procedure using an injection of platelet rich plasma into the penis for possible improvements in male sexual health, sexual function, sexual performance, penis length, and girth. A P-shot may be used by men with certain sexual dysfunctions such as erectile dysfunction although the results are not well proven nor well studied and it is not considered a first line treatment option.

Platelet rich plasma (PRP) put through centrifuge from the candidate's own blood is believed to contain growth factors and stem cells that provide male enhancement and erectile function. The most common brand name is the Priapus Shot®. Some candidates choose to pursue additional procedures in conjunction with a P-shot like a skin resurfacing procedure.
