What is the Priapus Shot® ?
The Priapus Shot® (also known as the P-Shot®) uses Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) activated as a Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM), to stimulate the patients own platelet growth factors to generate new connective and neurovascular tissue. Applications (2, 2a)
- Ageing Penis
- Erectile Dysfunction
- Diabetes, Hypertension, High Cholesterol
- Peyronie's Disease or Bent Erections
- Injury to the Penis
- Prostate Disease or Cancer
- Peripheral vascular (artery or vein) Disease
- Drug Side Effects
- Note individual responses may vary

1 in 2 adult males between the ages of 40 and 70 will have sexual changes they consider problematic (4, 5)
Dr. Morunga consults and examines each patient forming a diagnosis and treatment plan. He will recommend a number of different treatment options which may or may not be inclusive of the P-Shot®. |

What's the ED procedure?
The Priapus Shot® begins by withdrawing blood. The growth factors of the platelet-rich plasma are extracted from the blood sample, and re-injected into specific penile sites. These areas are numbed by a local anaesthetic cream before injection. Treatment is often pain free.

How does Priapus Shot® Work?
The natural serum that produces the effects of the Priapus Shot® is known as the platelet rich fibrin matrix or PRFM. The treatment takes about 15 minutes to perform using a fine needle ( topical anaesthetic reduces discomfort ).
There have been no serious long term effects found with PRP when administered appropriately with an FDA approved kit. A recent retrospective study in the Investigative Clinical Urology, Ethan 2018, concluded that PRFM injections for Erectile Dysfunction (ED) and Peyronie’s Disease (PD) are feasible and safe (1)

Pre-Treatment
Platelet function is inhibited by the following therefore DO NOT SMOKE. Do not use illegal drugs, avoid excess alcohol. Do not take salicylic acid (Aspirin) and Anti-inflammatory drugs such as Nurofen® and Voltaren® for two weeks before and six weeks after treatment. If you supplement with omega 3 fatty acids (fish, krill or flax seed oil), stop these during the same period.
Please refer to Data Information supplied for evidence based studies of P Shot® on Pre Treatment Advice.

Post-Treatment
Simple Paracetamol for any residual discomfort.
It is recommended that a Penis Pump be purchased and used.

Data Information supplied for evidence based studies of P Shot® Post Treatment Advice and Outcomes.
Pump protocol: 10 minutes at a pressure of 10 mmHg immediately after the shot. Then 10 to 15 minutes twice a day every day for at least 6 weeks. These two sessions can be back to back separated by a 5 minute rest.
You are encouraged to return to usual sexual activity immediately after treatment.

Data Information
Mechanism
The P-Shot® uses Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) activated as a Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM), that harnesses the power of the patients own platelet growth factors to regenerate new connective, vascular and neural tissue. It is a minimally invasive autologous medical treatment used across multiple medical specialties - including cosmetic rejuvenation.
Safety
There have been no serious long term effects found with PRP when administered appropriately with an FDA approved kit. A recent retrospective study in the Investigative Clinical Urology, Ethan 2018, concluded that PRFM injections for Erectile Dysfunction (ED) and Peyronie’s Disease (PD) are feasible and safe (1)
Providers
The P-Shot® is a trademarked procedure created by Dr Charles Runels. All global providers are registered members of the Cellular Medicine Association which includes urologists, surgeons, cosmetic physicians and general practitioners (2).
Patient Satisfaction Rates
A retrospective study of 1220 patients by Kumar CS; “Combined Treatment of Injecting Platelet Rich Plasma With Vacuum Pump For Penile Enlargement”; J Sex Med 2016, 11, 174, concluded that penile length and girth enhancement using PRP and Vacuum Device for patients suffering from small penis, severe ED, significant shortening with or without Peyronies disease is a safe cheap effective procedure that can be performed in an outpatient department. With erection satisfaction rates of 70% reported (3). Important variables such as patient medical history, presence chronic illness, medications-anti platelet therapy, lifestyle-smoking, type of PRP kits, harvesting technique, quality of PRP, doctor skill and patient expectations are contributing factors towards patient satisfaction and dissatisfaction rates (2a).
Demographics
In New Zealand there are more than 1 in 3 men who suffer from erectile dysfunction in their lifetime (4,5) the majority of whom present with mild-to-moderate erectile symptoms, which worsen with age (4). We recommend that any complicated cases that have not previously been investigated be referred to the appropriate clinicians such as an urologist before proceeding with any treatment.
