PRP — sexual health
PRP for Sexual Health in St. Louis (P-Shot & O-Shot)
PRP-based sexual health treatments — the P-Shot for men and the O-Shot for women — use a concentrated form of your own blood's platelets to deliver growth-factor signals to genital tissue. At Simply Health Integrated Medical in St. Louis, these treatments are evaluated as part of a broader sexual health and hormone conversation rather than as one-off cosmetic procedures.

Why patients ask about PRP-based sexual health treatments
Sexual health changes can have multiple drivers — hormones, vascular factors, medications, tissue changes, relationship factors, and broader health. Patients who have already explored medication options or who are looking for a non-pill, biologic option often find their way to PRP-based treatments. The right answer depends on the underlying drivers, which is what the evaluation identifies.
The P-Shot for men
The P-Shot (Priapus Shot) uses PRP injected into specific areas of the penis with the goal of supporting tissue health, blood flow, and erectile function. Candidates often include men with mild-to-moderate erectile dysfunction, men with reduced sensation, and men interested in tissue-support approaches alongside or in place of medication. Candidacy review considers cardiovascular context, medications, hormone status, and prior treatments.
The O-Shot for women
The O-Shot (Orgasm Shot) uses PRP injected into specific areas of the vaginal tissue with the goal of supporting arousal, sensation, lubrication, and in some cases urinary symptoms. Candidates often include women with reduced sensation, women dealing with arousal or lubrication changes (particularly in perimenopause and menopause), and women with mild urinary leakage that has not required other intervention. Candidacy review considers hormone status, prior pelvic care, and goals.
Why we evaluate hormones alongside PRP
Sexual health changes in midlife often have a meaningful hormone component — testosterone in men, estradiol and testosterone in women. A PRP-based treatment may help local tissue, but if the broader hormone context is also part of the picture, the right plan often includes BHRT evaluation alongside the PRP discussion. Simply Health Integrated Medical is set up to do both rather than treating sexual health in isolation.
What the visit looks like
The first visit is an evaluation. The team reviews symptom history, prior treatments, hormone context, medications, medical history, and goals. If a P-Shot or O-Shot is appropriate, the procedure involves a blood draw, centrifuge preparation, and the targeted injections — typically performed with topical numbing for comfort. Most patients describe the procedure as well-tolerated.
Realistic expectations
Response to PRP-based sexual health treatments varies. Some patients see meaningful change within weeks; others take 2 to 3 months. The treatment works best when integrated with the broader hormone and health picture, and a single treatment is sometimes followed by a second 3 to 6 months later depending on response.
Request a sexual health consultation
If you are dealing with sexual health changes — function, sensation, arousal, lubrication, urinary symptoms — and you want an evaluation that considers tissue, hormones, and the broader picture, request a consultation. The next step is determining what fits your specific situation.

▸What is the P-Shot?
The P-Shot (Priapus Shot) is a PRP-based treatment where platelet-rich plasma prepared from a small sample of your own blood is injected into specific areas of the penis. The goal is to support tissue health, blood flow, and erectile function. Candidacy review considers cardiovascular context, hormones, medications, and prior treatments.
▸What is the O-Shot?
The O-Shot (Orgasm Shot) is a PRP-based treatment where platelet-rich plasma is injected into specific areas of the vaginal tissue. The goal is to support arousal, sensation, lubrication, and in some cases urinary symptoms. Candidacy review considers hormone status, prior pelvic care, and goals.
▸Does the P-Shot or O-Shot hurt?
Most patients describe the procedure as well-tolerated. Topical numbing is used to minimize discomfort. The injection portion itself takes only a few minutes after preparation.
▸How long does a P-Shot or O-Shot last?
Response varies by patient. Many patients see meaningful change for 6 to 12 months after a single treatment, with some patients opting for a second treatment 3 to 6 months later for additional benefit. Maintenance approaches vary.
▸Is the P-Shot an alternative to ED medication?
For men with mild-to-moderate erectile dysfunction, the P-Shot can be a complementary or alternative option to PDE5 inhibitor medications. The evaluation determines whether tissue-support, hormone optimization, medication, or a combination fits the patient's specific situation. Cardiovascular health context is always part of the conversation.
▸Are these PRP-based treatments safe?
PRP is prepared from your own blood, which removes many of the risks associated with foreign materials. As with any injection procedure, there are standard risks including injection-site soreness, bruising, and rare infection. Candidacy review identifies any specific contraindications for your case.
▸Is the P-Shot or O-Shot covered by insurance?
PRP-based sexual health treatments are typically not covered by insurance. Cost is reviewed during the evaluation.
