PRP for Sexual Wellness

A Thoughtful, Regenerative Approach

At Radiant You, we believe sexual health is an important part of how you feel, function, and show up in your life.

The Priapus-shot (P-Shot) with Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is one option we offer to support sexual function using your body’s own natural biology.

Why We Provide This Information

The P-Shot is a procedure that uses injections of your body’s own growth factors into the penis. It is an evolving area of sexual wellness with promising potential for improving sexual function and overall confidence.

Some patients experience meaningful improvement. Others may not. The research is still developing, and results can vary.

We believe you deserve a clear understanding of what is known, what is uncertain, and how this treatment fits into your overall care — so you can make a decision that feels right for you.

What Is PRP?

PRP is created from your own blood. A small sample is drawn and processed to concentrate platelets, which contain growth factors involved in:
  • Tissue repair
  • Blood vessel formation
  • Nerve signaling

This concentrated plasma is then injected into targeted areas.

The goal is to support function at a tissue level — not just temporarily treat symptoms.

What Does the Research Show?

Research on the P-Shot for sexual wellness is still evolving, but many patients and providers report encouraging results in areas such as sensitivity, performance, and
confidence.

  • Current studies on the P-Shot use varying protocols, making it difficult to draw absolute conclusions across all patients.
  • Despite this, several promising studies have shown improvements in male sexual performance and overall satisfaction.
  • We believe the P-Shot can be a valuable part of a broader sexual wellness plan by offering patients another tool to support function and confidence.

Why does this matter?

Because outcomes can depend on:

  • How PRP is prepared
  • How it is injected
  • Who is being treated
At this time, PRP is considered an investigational treatment for sexual dysfunction.
Why Do Some Patients Still Choose It?

Even with mixed evidence, PRP may be considered because:

  • It has a strong safety profile
  • It uses your own blood
  • Some patients report meaningful improvement
  • It may support underlying tissue health rather than only symptoms
For patients looking for a regenerative approach — especially those who haven’t fully responded to other options — it can be a reasonable next step.

Our Approach at Radiant You

Our protocols are based on formal training in established techniques developed by leaders in regenerative sexual health, including methods introduced by Dr. Charles Runels.

We build on that foundation with a physician-led, evidence-informed approach focused on:

  • Consistent PRP preparation
  • Precise injection technique
  • Patient comfort and safety
  • Thoughtful treatment planning
We recognize that technique matters — and we prioritize doing this well.

What to Expect

  • Treatment typically involves 2–4 sessions
  • If improvement occurs, it is usually noticed within 1–3 months
  • Results may last 6 months or longer for some patients
  • Not all patients will experience improvement
Every patient responds differently.

Safety

PRP is derived from your own blood, which means:

  • No risk of allergic reaction
  • No risk of disease transmission

Side effects are typically mild and temporary:

  • Local soreness
  • Bruising
  • Temporary swelling

Is This Right for You?

PRP is not a first-line treatment, and it is not a guaranteed solution.

It is one option among several.

We’ll help you understand:

  • Where this fits in your overall plan
  • What alternatives exist
  • Whether it aligns with your goals
