What is PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma)?

PRP treatment is a novel approach to treating Erectile Dysfunction. This procedure involves the use of autologous plasma, which has been found to exhibit exceptional results. The specific type of PRP referred to here is its autologous plasma, which possesses a platelet concentration that surpasses the typical concentrations typically observed in whole blood (platelet count in blood can range between 150,000 and 350,000 per μL). It has been proven that increases in platelet count beyond 1,000,000 platelets per μL enhance soft tissue healing, thereby becoming the definitive definition for PRP.

Patients suffering from erectile dysfunction have low self-esteem and may eventually encounter depression, which can be alleviated with proper treatment. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) represents a life-saving resource for individuals who are unable to consider surgical procedures or those who do not find their medicines effective.
