Erectile dysfunction (ED) can significantly impact your quality of life. At Genesis Lifestyle Medicine, we understand that every individual’s journey with ED is unique, so we offer various treatments tailored to your needs. Whether your ED stems from physiological, psychological, or hormonal factors, effective solutions are within reach.
Modern medicine provides numerous options for treating ED, ranging from innovative therapies like the P-Shot and GAINSWave to medications and testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). Each treatment works differently, targeting the root causes of ED and improving your sexual health. In this article, we’ll break down the science behind each method, its effectiveness, and how quickly you can expect results.
P-Shot
The P-Shot (Priapus Shot) uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from your own blood to promote tissue regeneration. The procedure involves drawing a small amount of your blood, isolating the PRP, and injecting it into targeted areas of the penis. PRP contains growth factors that stimulate blood vessel growth and enhance cellular repair, improving blood flow and tissue health. By addressing vascular and cellular deficiencies, the P-Shot helps enhance sensitivity, improve erections, and potentially increase penis size.
How effective is the P-Shot?
Results from the P-Shot typically begin appearing within a few weeks, with full effects realized after about three months. The benefits often last up to a year or more, depending on your health and lifestyle. Clinical studies report high satisfaction rates, with many patients experiencing noticeable improvements in sexual performance and confidence.
GAINSWave
GAINSWave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-intensity sound waves to enhance blood flow by breaking down microplaque in penile blood vessels and stimulating the formation of new vessels. This process, known as angiogenesis, restores proper blood flow, a critical factor for achieving and maintaining erections. In addition to improving vascular health, GAINSWave therapy boosts the release of growth factors and encourages nerve repair, which can enhance sensation, making it ideal for vascular-related ED.
How effective is GAINSWave?
You may notice improvements after the first few sessions, with optimal results achieved after 6-12 treatments. The effects can last up to two years, particularly when combined with healthy lifestyle habits. Research shows that GAINSWave is effective for up to 80% of men with ED, offering a long-lasting solution without surgery or downtime.
TriMix
TriMix is a highly effective medication that combines three active ingredients—alprostadil, papaverine, and phentolamine—to relax smooth muscles and increase blood flow to the penis. Administered via a small injection, TriMix is customizable based on your specific needs. Unlike oral medications that require stimulation to take effect, TriMix produces reliable erections within minutes. It’s particularly beneficial for men who don’t respond well to oral treatments or have more severe ED caused by vascular or neurological conditions.
How effective is TriMix?
TriMix works almost immediately, with erections lasting up to an hour or more. Its success rate exceeds 90%, making it one of the most reliable ED treatments available. Regular use under medical supervision ensures safety and ongoing effectiveness with minimal side effects.
Priapus Toxin
Priapus Toxin™ is an innovative ED treatment that uses botulinum toxin (commonly known as Botox) to relax smooth muscle tissue in the penile area. By reducing muscle tension, the toxin allows for improved blood flow and enhanced erections. This approach addresses both physical and neurological factors contributing to ED. The minimally invasive procedure typically requires no downtime, making it appealing for men seeking a convenient solution.
How effective is Priapus Toxin?
The results from Priapus Toxin usually appear within a few days to a week, with the benefits lasting 3-6 months. Studies indicate a high success rate, especially when combined with other therapies like the P-Shot or GAINSWave. Its effectiveness varies depending on individual health factors but is generally well-tolerated and impactful.
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT)
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a hormonal treatment aimed at restoring low testosterone levels, a common cause of ED and reduced libido. TRT can involve injections, gels, patches, or pellets, depending on your preferences and medical needs. By optimizing testosterone levels, TRT addresses underlying hormonal imbalances that may be affecting your sexual performance, mood, and energy levels. It’s particularly suitable for men experiencing ED alongside symptoms like fatigue and decreased muscle mass.
How effective is TRT?
Most men notice improvements in energy, libido, and erectile function within a few weeks of starting TRT, with full benefits appearing after several months. The effectiveness depends on the severity of your testosterone deficiency, but studies show significant improvements in sexual function and overall quality of life for most men undergoing therapy.
ED medications
Oral medications like sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis), and others are among the most common treatments for ED. These belong to a class of medications called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors, which enhance blood flow to the penis by relaxing blood vessels. Oral medications are easy to use and effective for most men with mild to moderate ED. They work when you’re sexually aroused, making them a discreet option for improving erectile function.
How effective are ED medications?
The effects of ED medications typically begin within 30-60 minutes and can last up to 36 hours, depending on the drug. Success rates range from 70% to 85%, depending on the underlying cause of ED. While effective, these medications may not work for men with severe vascular or neurological conditions, making other therapies a better choice.
