P-Shot (Priapus Shot) in Kepong, Kuala Lumpur

Platelet-rich plasma from your own blood, injected into the penis for mild to moderate erectile dysfunction. About 30 to 45 minutes, numbed first, and considered after the cause has been looked for rather than instead of looking.

What the Priapus Shot actually is

The Priapus Shot, shortened to P-Shot and often typed P shot, is platelet-rich plasma taken from your own blood and injected into the penis. It is the same preparation this clinic already uses on knees and on scalps: about 40ml of blood drawn from the arm, spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, and the concentrate injected where it is wanted. The growth factors it carries are what the treatment is betting on, and the argument is that they encourage new small blood vessels and repair to the tissue that erections depend on.

Because the material is your own, there is nothing foreign to react to. That is the honest safety argument for it, and it is a real one. It is not the same as an argument that it works, which is a separate question this page answers separately.

Who the P-Shot is for

The P-Shot is for a narrow group, and being clear about which group is most of the value of reading this page.

  • Mild to moderate erectile dysfunction, already assessed by a doctor
  • You have tried tablets and they worked poorly, or the side effects were not tolerable
  • You would rather not take a medication before sex, or before every episode
  • Peyronie's disease: curvature and a palpable lump from scar tissue in the shaft
  • Your blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol have already been checked

The last line is not a formality. Erectile dysfunction is often the first sign of a blood vessel problem, and treating the symptom without looking for the cause is how a treatable cardiovascular problem gets missed for another two years.

What happens during a P-Shot treatment

About 30 to 45 minutes from arriving to leaving, done in the clinic, with no admission and no general anaesthetic.

  1. Numbing first

    A topical anaesthetic is applied and given time to work. This is the step that decides whether the appointment is comfortable, and it is not rushed.

  2. A blood draw

    From the arm, the way any blood test is taken. Around 40ml.

  3. The spin

    The sample goes into the centrifuge for roughly 15 to 20 minutes, separating the platelet-rich portion from the rest.

  4. The injection

    The concentrate is injected into specific sites along the shaft. Most men describe pressure rather than pain.

  5. Afterwards

    You go back to your day. Expect mild swelling, tenderness or small bruises for a few days, and leave sexual activity for 24 to 48 hours.

P-Shot before and after: what changes, and what does not

Read this before booking a course. Several clinics in Kuala Lumpur promise things on this page's subject that the evidence does not support, and the difference matters more here than on most pages. There are no before-and-after photographs here either: another man's photograph tells you nothing about your own result, and Malaysian rules on advertising private healthcare are not permissive about them.

Reasonable to hope for

  • Firmer erections in mild to moderate dysfunction
  • Improvement that builds over one to three months rather than the same week
  • Something to try where tablets worked poorly or were not tolerated
  • Reduced curvature and discomfort in Peyronie's disease, on early evidence
  • A safety profile that comes from using your own blood

What this page will not claim

  • That it makes the penis larger. It does not, and a clinic promising that is selling you something
  • That it cures erectile dysfunction, or that the result is permanent
  • That it replaces finding out why the dysfunction is happening
  • That the evidence is settled. It is early, and smaller than the evidence behind tablets
  • A guaranteed outcome, or a number for how many men respond

P-Shot compared with tablets and the other ED treatments

The P-Shot is one option on a list, and it is rarely the first item on it. What the consultation does is put them in order for your case.

Treating the cause
Diabetes, blood pressure, cholesterol, and a review of medication that contributes. This comes first because it is the only step that treats the underlying problem rather than the symptom, and because it finds things worth finding.
Oral medication
Sildenafil, tadalafil and the rest are the best-evidenced treatment there is, and the usual first step. Where they work, they work well.
The psychological side
Anxiety, depression, stress and relationship difficulty cause and worsen erectile dysfunction, and treating them is treatment rather than an afterthought.
The P-Shot
Considered where the above has been done and is not enough, or where medication is unsuitable. A course rather than a single injection.

Side effects, and who should not have a P-Shot

Because the plasma is your own, there is nothing foreign to react to. The side effects are the ones any injection has: mild swelling, tenderness, small bruises, or a temporary change in sensation, usually settling within a few days. Who should not have it at all is a separate list, and any line on it needs settling before a course is booked.

  • An active infection, or an open wound in the area
  • A bleeding or clotting disorder, or anticoagulant medication
  • Severe or uncontrolled diabetes, or advanced cardiovascular disease
  • A cancer diagnosis, or immunosuppressive treatment
  • Erectile dysfunction that has not been assessed at all

Bring your current medication list. Declining to give a treatment is a legitimate outcome of a consultation, and it is one of the reasons there is a consultation.

Common questions

How much does the P-Shot cost in Malaysia?
It is quoted at the consultation rather than from a list, because the number of sessions depends on the case. Ask on WhatsApp and you will have the figure before you come in.
Is the P-Shot painful?
A topical anaesthetic is applied first and given time to work. Most men describe pressure rather than pain during the injections, with mild tenderness for a few days afterwards.
How many sessions are needed?
A course rather than a single injection, spaced several weeks apart. How many is decided at the assessment, not sold in advance.
How soon would I notice anything?
Changes build over one to three months rather than the same week, because the treatment works through your own healing response. Some men notice nothing, and no honest clinic can tell you in advance which group you are in.
How long does the P-Shot last?
Where it helps, men generally describe the benefit holding for several months to about a year, and a maintenance session is sometimes suggested after that. It is not permanent, and the honest answer is that the trials behind those figures are small.
Does the P-Shot increase size?
No. Some clinics advertise that it does. It is not what the treatment is for and it is not what the evidence supports.
Do I need to be assessed first?
Yes. Erectile dysfunction is often the first sign of a blood vessel problem, so blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol and your medication list are checked before any injection is considered.
