As men get older, being able to perform sexually becomes more and more difficult. This trouble can come in many different forms, including difficulty becoming aroused and trouble maintaining an erection. While this change is perfectly natural, it can be incredibly discouraging for the men that experience it. Fortunately, there’s now a simple, entirely non-invasive way that can help enhance sexual performance — the Priapus Shot.
Also referred to as the P-Shot, the Priapus Shot is a cutting-edge procedure that uses the patient’s own platelet-rich plasma, or PRP cells, to enhance sexual performance.
Each Priapus Shot begins with the drawing of blood from the patient’s arm. This blood is then spun in a centrifuge so that the nutrient rich platelets within the blood separate from the rest of its components. Once the PRP cells have been isolated, they are reinjected into the patient in selected areas.
Many causes of male sexual difficulties are related to decreases in blood flow and damage to the surrounding nerve supply. While there are forms of male sexual enhancement treatment that can temporarily improve this decline in blood flow, they do not address the deeper, structural issues that are responsible for chronic sexual difficulties. With the Priapus Shot, PRP cells work to address sexual difficulties at their root cause — biological damage. Because the Priapus Shot targets the underlying causes of these sexual difficulties, it can improve them in a more meaningful, long-lasting way.
The Priapus Shot can be used to improve nearly every aspect of male sexual enhancement. The benefits this procedure brings to patients vary widely, and can include:
While this procedure can benefit almost any male experiencing difficulties in sexual performance, it is particularly effective in cases that are partially caused by an enlarged prostate, prostate cancer, diabetes, or the side effects of surgery or drugs.
