Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. How does the P-Shot, also known as the Priapus Shot, improve sexual function in men?
The P-Shot is a non-surgical procedure that uses a natural substance derived from the patient’s own blood, making it generally safe. The most common and focused benefits of this treatment are related to overall sexual health, including:
● Treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED): Improving the hardness and strength of erections.
● Increased sensitivity and pleasure: Enhancing nerve sensation in the penis.
● Increased endurance: Reducing the “recovery time” between erections.
● Treatment of Peyronie’s Disease: Helps reduce penile curvature caused by scarring.
2. When does a patient undergo Penile Curvature Correction?
Penile Curvature Correction refers to a set of medical and surgical procedures aimed at straightening a penis that has an abnormal curvature during erection. This curvature often occurs due to Peyronie’s Disease, a condition in which plaques (hard scar tissue) form within the penile tissue, preventing it from expanding evenly during an erection.
3. What is prostate enlargement, and what are its main symptoms?
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a non-cancerous growth of the prostate gland cells, leading to an increase in the size of the gland. This enlargement is considered a natural part of aging in men and becomes more common after the age of 50. An enlarged prostate puts pressure on the urethra that passes through it, obstructing urine flow. The symptoms are mainly related to “urination problems,” including:
● Weak urine flow: The stream becomes weak and interrupted.
● Urinary urgency: A sudden need to urinate.
● Frequent urination: Especially waking up at night to urinate (nocturia).
● Difficulty starting urination: Needing to strain to begin urine flow.
● Incomplete emptying: Feeling that the bladder is not fully emptied after urination.
The main cause is believed to be age-related hormonal changes, particularly an increase in dihydrotestosterone (DHT).
4. What is Prostatitis and what are its main types?
Prostatitis is the inflammation and swelling of the prostate gland. It can affect men of any age but is more common in men under 50. Prostatitis is divided into four main types, the most important of which are:
1. Acute bacterial prostatitis: This type starts suddenly and is usually treated with antibiotics.
2. Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS): This is the most common type, causing chronic pain in the pelvic area and often does not have a clear bacterial cause.
5. What is Shockwave Therapy for Erectile Dysfunction (ED) in men?
It is a non-surgical procedure used to stimulate blood flow to the penis in order to improve erectile function in men with ED. The goal is to enhance natural erections without medications such as Viagra or Cialis. It does not produce an immediate erection during the session but gradually improves erectile function over time.
Sessions are typically conducted once or twice a week for 6 to 12 sessions, with each session lasting approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
