You may be feeling frustrated by changes in your sexual performance: difficulty achieving or maintaining erections, loss of sensitivity, or a general decrease in satisfaction. These issues can impact your confidence, relationships, and well-being. If you’re looking for a natural, drug-free solution to support sexual health, the P-Shot (Priapus Shot) may be exactly what you need.
The P-Shot is a cutting-edge, non-surgical procedure that uses your body’s own healing properties, specifically platelet-rich plasma (PRP), to stimulate tissue regeneration, boost blood flow, and enhance penile function. At Vitalogy Health and Integrative Medicine in Denver, we offer this therapy as part of our holistic approach to men’s wellness. Here’s exactly what to expect before, during, and after your P-Shot.
What to expect before the P-Shot
Before undergoing the P-Shot, you’ll have a chance to meet with one of Vitalogy’s experienced providers for a personalized consultation. This phase ensures the treatment is tailored to your needs and prepares your body for the best results. Here’s what you can expect:
- Medical consultation: Your provider will review your health history, symptoms, and goals to determine if the P-Shot is right for you. This is important if you have underlying health conditions or are taking medications that could affect the outcome.
- Pre-treatment guidelines: You’ll receive instructions to follow in the days leading up to your appointment. These may include avoiding alcohol and caffeine for 24 hours before treatment, staying hydrated, and pausing certain supplements as advised.
- Hydration and nutrition: Proper hydration is essential for a successful PRP extraction. You’ll be encouraged to drink plenty of water the day before your treatment to ensure your blood draws smoothly and yields high-quality plasma.
What to expect during the P-Shot
The actual procedure is straightforward and minimally invasive. You’ll be in and out in less than an hour, and the discomfort is usually minimal thanks to the use of numbing agents. Here’s what you can expect during the P-Shot:
- Blood draw and PRP preparation: The treatment begins with a simple blood draw, typically from your arm. Your blood is then placed in a centrifuge, which spins it at high speed to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other components. This PRP contains concentrated growth factors that promote healing and regeneration.
- Numbing the area: To ensure comfort, a topical numbing cream or local anesthetic will be applied to the penis. This helps reduce any sensation during the injection process.
- Targeted PRP injections: Using a very fine needle, your provider will inject the PRP into specific areas of the penis. The number and location of the injections depend on your specific goals and concerns. The entire injection process typically takes 10 to 15 minutes and may cause slight pressure or mild discomfort.
What to expect after the P-Shot
Once the procedure is complete, you can return to your normal routine fairly quickly. There’s no downtime, but a few temporary precautions are recommended to ensure the best possible outcome. Here’s what you can expect after the P-Shot:
- Mild soreness or swelling: It’s common to experience mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection sites. These effects typically resolve within a few days.
- Short-term activity restrictions: Avoid sexual activity for at least 24 hours post-treatment to allow the tissue to begin healing. You should also skip strenuous exercise or activities that cause sweating for 24 to 48 hours.
- Gradual improvement over time: The results don’t appear instantly. Because the treatment relies on natural healing, it can take several weeks for you to notice improvements in sensitivity, erectile function, and overall performance.
- Possible follow-ups: Depending on the severity of your symptoms, your provider may recommend additional sessions. Some men achieve optimal sexual health results with a single treatment, while others benefit from two or more treatments spaced months apart.
- Long-lasting results: Many patients enjoy the benefits of the P-Shot for 12 to 18 months or longer. By boosting circulation and promoting healthy tissue growth, the treatment can lead to lasting improvements in both function and satisfaction.
