Penile PRP
Penile PRP
Erectile dysfunction is a problem for many men and this condition may contribute to a couple’s infertility. Many men suffer in silence because they are too embarrassed or too proud to discuss it with their partners or health care providers. Some studies have shown that as many as 76.5% of all men on the planet will suffer from some form of erectile dysfunction during their lifetime. ED is not just an issue for older men. As many as 26% of men under the age of 40 will experience ED.
Treatment for ED is often treated with synthetic medications that attempt to increase the blood flow to the penis in the already existing and potentially compromised vasculature. Protein Rich Plasma (PRP) is an exciting treatment method using your own blood products instead of relying on synthetic medications.
PRP comes from your own blood and includes concentrated platelets, leukocytes, fibrin, growth factors, and various bioactive factors. When PRP is injected into the penis, the PRP triggers new blood vessels to be formed through a process known as neovascularization, thereby increasing the ability of the body to move blood into the penis allowing for firmer and more reliable erections. PRP has also been shown to encourage the growth and repair of damaged nerves which may inhibit the ability to achieve and maintain an erection.
PRP treatment is extremely safe and natural. You already have the ingredients to treat your ED locked away in your body. If you think PRP treatment may be right for you, please schedule an appointment with one of our providers so that we can help you achieve your fullest potential.
