PRP for Men's Sexual Health in Boca Raton

A small draw of your own blood, concentrated into platelet-rich plasma, then placed in penile tissue to support blood flow, tissue repair and sensitivity. The procedure is usually called the P-Shot, or Priapus Shot. No prescription drug, nothing synthetic, nothing from a donor.

Ask about this privately

We call you back within one business day. Say as much or as little as you want here.

No obligation. We never share your information.

What the treatment is

Platelet-rich plasma, placed where the tissue has changed.

Platelet-rich plasma is made from a small amount of your own blood. Spun in a centrifuge, the platelets separate out and are concentrated into a small volume of plasma. Platelets are the cells that arrive first at an injury, releasing the growth factors that signal repair and new blood vessel formation. Placing that concentrate in penile tissue is an attempt to prompt the same response in an area where circulation and tissue quality have declined — with age, or alongside another medical condition.

01

Consultation

You meet with your provider, in person and privately, to go through symptoms, medical history and medications. This is also where we look for a cause that a needle will not fix.

02

Blood draw

A small sample, taken here at the office. It is the same experience as a routine lab draw, and you stay in the room while it is prepared.

03

Platelet separation

Your sample goes into a centrifuge, which pulls the platelet layer away from the rest of the blood. That layer is drawn off with a sterile single-use kit — this is the PRP.

04

Targeted injection

The area is numbed with topical or local anesthetic, then the plasma is placed with fine needles into the specific tissue we are treating. The injections take a few minutes. Most patients return to their normal day, with intercourse and strenuous exercise usually held off briefly.

Who it is done for

One procedure, done for men.

PRP for sexual health here is the P-Shot. The blood draw, the centrifuge step and the plasma itself are the same as our other PRP treatments — what differs is the tissue it is placed in and the technique used to reach it.

For men

The P-Shot (Priapus Shot)

PRP injected into penile tissue after numbing, aimed at supporting circulation and tissue repair. Men consider it as part of erectile dysfunction therapy, or where oral medication is unwanted, poorly tolerated or only partly effective. It is a procedure, not a prescription — there is no daily pill attached to it.

  • Erectile function and firmness concerns
  • Reduced sensitivity
  • Preference for a drug-free, non-surgical option
  • Often paired with an evaluation of testosterone and metabolic health
Call and ask if it is right for you
Afterward

The days that follow

The injections take a few minutes and most patients go back to their normal day. Mild swelling, tenderness or bruising at the site for a day or two is normal, and you leave with written aftercare instructions rather than a verbal summary.

  • Numbed with topical or local anesthetic first
  • Intercourse and strenuous exercise held off briefly
  • Written aftercare instructions before you leave
  • Any change builds over weeks, not the same evening

What it is aimed at

Three things, and we will not claim a fourth.

PRP is a tissue treatment. Here is what the treatment is meant to affect.

Circulation

Blood flow to the tissue

Growth factors released by platelets are involved in forming and maintaining small blood vessels. Sexual function is substantially a circulation problem, which is why blood flow is the first thing this treatment targets.

Tissue

Repair and tissue quality

The same signalling supports collagen and connective tissue. Where tissue has thinned or changed with age, the intent is to improve its condition rather than mask a symptom.

Sensation

Sensitivity and arousal

Tissue with a better blood supply tends to be more responsive. Patients describe this as sensitivity, and it is a common reason for asking about the treatment in the first place.

Being straight with you

Sexual symptoms are often a message about something else.

Erectile difficulty can be an early sign of cardiovascular disease or diabetes. Low libido is frequently hormonal. Blood pressure medication, antidepressants, alcohol, poor sleep and untreated stress all show up here first. A physician-led practice checks that before it injects anything — That is what a medical evaluation is for.

Reasons to look at something else first
  • Symptoms that came on suddenly, or with chest pain, numbness or new medication
  • Untreated diabetes, blood pressure or cardiovascular disease
  • Blood or platelet disorders, or active infection at the site
  • Low testosterone that has never been tested or treated
  • Expecting one appointment to settle the matter
Reasonable to sit down and discuss
  • Gradual, age-related change
  • Reduced sensitivity, libido or arousal
  • Erectile function concerns where oral medication is unwanted or only partly effective
  • A preference for a non-surgical option that uses no medication
  • Realistic expectations and otherwise good general health
  • Wanting the plan and the price in writing first

Where testing points to a hormonal cause, treating the hormone is often the more useful first step — see testosterone therapy for men or hormone therapy. Sometimes both are appropriate. Sometimes neither is, and we will tell you that too.

What to expect from us

One office, a small team, and a conversation that stays there.

Discretion

A two-provider practice

LifeBoost is Bruce J. Stratt, MD and Gabrielle Janney, PA-C, at one office on Beracasa Way. You will know which provider you are seeing before you arrive. Dr. Stratt reviews your treatment plan before anything starts. Dr. Stratt has treated this community since 2014, and patients also come from Delray Beach, Boynton Beach and Deerfield Beach. Meet the team.

Money

Quoted before it is scheduled

We are a self-pay practice and do not bill insurance for PRP. You get the number of sessions we are recommending, and the price for them, in writing before you commit to anything — not after the first appointment. If we do not think the treatment is worth your money, we will say so instead of booking it.

Where to next

How this fits with the rest of the practice.

We also use platelet-rich plasma for hair, skin, acne scars and joints. If you are not sure PRP is right for you, call and ask.

Before you call

What patients ask, and rarely ask out loud.

What is the P-Shot?

P-Shot is the common name for the Priapus Shot — platelet-rich plasma injected into penile tissue. The plasma is made from your own blood during the same appointment, so there is no drug and nothing from a donor. It is one option men consider for erectile function, and it is not the right one for every cause of the problem.

Does the injection hurt?

The area is numbed with topical or local anesthetic before anything is injected, and the injections themselves are done with fine needles and take a few minutes. Most patients describe pressure more than pain. Mild swelling, tenderness or bruising at the site for a day or two is normal, and we give you written aftercare instructions before you leave.

How long before I would notice anything?

Regenerative treatment works on your body's own repair timeline, so any change builds over several weeks rather than the same evening. How much changes, and how long it holds, varies from person to person — some patients choose a repeat session or periodic maintenance. We will not tell you what your result will be, because nobody can honestly predict that.

Could my symptoms be caused by something else?

Often, yes — and that matters. Erectile difficulty can be an early sign of cardiovascular disease or diabetes, and low libido is frequently hormonal. Blood pressure medication, antidepressants, alcohol, poor sleep and stress all contribute. We take a history and run laboratory testing where it is indicated before treating the tissue, because injecting a symptom while ignoring its cause is not medicine.

Is this discreet, and does insurance cover it?

You are seen at one office by a two-provider practice, and you will know who you are seeing before you arrive. LifeBoost is self-pay and does not bill insurance for PRP, which is why your plan and your price are put in writing before anything is scheduled.

This page is for general information and is not medical advice. Whether any treatment is appropriate for you is determined after evaluation and, where indicated, laboratory testing.
