Men, are you looking to improve your performance in the bedroom, want better erections and bigger size?
Platelet Rich Plasma(PRP) For ED is a new approach to treat erectile dysfunction and sexual dysfunction
Dr Channey has seen hundreds of patients who have tried various ways to treat the problem. Some men have used pills or drinks, while others have even gone so far as injecting themselves with prescription medications. Most men are looking for a quick fix. Meanwhile, they ignore the core causes of the problem that harms their bodies.
Do I have Male Sexual Dysfunction?
The Cleveland Clinic describes sexual dysfunction as: Sexual dysfunction refers to a problem during any phase of the sexual response cycle that prevents the individual or couple from experiencing satisfaction from the sexual activity. The sexual response cycle has four phases: excitement, plateau, orgasm and resolution.
Causes of sexual dysfunction include:
Physical causes - Many physical and/or medical conditions can cause problems with sexual function. These conditions include diabetes, heart and vascular (blood vessel) disease, neurological disorders, hormonal imbalances, chronic diseases such as kidney or liver failure, and alcoholism and drug abuse. In addition, the side effects of certain medications, including some antidepressants drugs, can affect sexual desire and function.
Psychological causes - These include work-related stress and anxiety, concern about sexual performance, marital or relationship problems, depression, feelings of guilt, and the effects of a past sexual trauma. The most common problems related to sexual dysfunction in men include ejaculation disorders, erectile dysfunction and inhibited sexual desire.
Inhibited sexual desire (reduced libido)
Inhibited desire, or loss of libido, refers to a decrease in desire for or interest in sexual activity. Reduced libido can result from physical or psychological factors. It has been associated with low levels of the hormone testosterone. It also may be caused by psychological problems, such as anxiety and depression; medical illnesses such as diabetes and high blood pressure; certain medications, including some anti-depressants; and relationship difficulties.
Testosterone Therapy
The first step is to address any issues with low male hormone levels and / or a high count of the female hormone, estrogen. Through our testosterone replacement therapy, we increase the patient’s testosterone levels and decrease his level of estrogen with real hormone treatment. The results of the hormone therapy have been outstanding and often reverses any ED issues.
PRP Injection
the PRP Shot is a natural alternative remedy for erectile dysfunction (ED, the inability to achieve and maintain an erection), which increases with age. Within the penis there are two paired cylinders (hollow tubes) that, when filled with entrapped blood, are responsible for the hardness of an erection. If this is not accomplished a man cannot achieve nor maintain an erection. It is estimated that 1 out of every 2 men between the ages of 35 and 65 will have a problem with ED.
There are varied diseases that can cause ED, including high blood pressure, diabetes, kidney disease, enlarged prostate (BPH), and prostate cancer. Additionally, medications, emotional, and psychological issues (i.e., depression, anxiety, and stress), or the after-effects of surgery (typically prostate removal due to cancer) can contribute to ED. With well over 20 Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs on the market, the PRP Shot is well-suited for those men who seek a natural, non-surgical approach to the treatment of their ED, as well as those seeking male enhancement or treatment for Peyronie’s disease, an ailment causing curved, painful erections.
How the PRP Shot Works
The PRP Shot is a procedure utilizing natural growth factors that are already present in the blood. The growth factors are harvested using the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) method. To get PRP, whole blood is drawn from a patient and put into a machine (a centrifuge) that separates the platelets from the rest of the blood’s components (i.e., red and white blood cells). The resulting PRP, which is enriched with growth factors, is then injected into the penis to stimulate the growth of young, revitalized tissue and to maximize blood flow, allowing for penile rejuvenation.
The PRP Shot procedure is quick (performed in 30–40 minutes), virtually painless, and does not require general anesthesia—just local topical anesthesia. Additionally, the PRP Shot is performed in-office, which means no downtime or hospitalizations and being able to resume normal activities, including sexual intercourse, the same day as the procedure. Typically, the results of the PRP Shot are immediate (but optimal 3 to 4 weeks after the procedure) and can last as long as 1 to 2 months.
Does the PRP Shot Work?
The PRP Shot is a highly effective therapy representing an alternative solution to the patient’s sexual concerns (e.g., ED or male enhancement). Benefits may include:
- More rigid and sustainable erections (remember the treatment increases blood flow)
- Increased sexual stamina
- Increased sexual sensitivity and pleasure
- Increased penile length and girth
- Reduced time between ejaculation and subsequent erections
The PRP Shot represents state-of-the-art medical innovation and delivers long-lasting results that cannot be achieved with pills, creams, or other male enhancement procedures. Whether you require a little help every now and again or it has been years since you have been able to achieve an erection, the PRP Shot may be helpful!
