Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
International Index of Erectile Function(IIEF-5)
The possible scores for the IIEF-5 range from 5 to 25, and ED was classified into five categories based on the scores: severe (5-7), moderate (8-11), mild (12-21), and no ED (22-25).
Secondary Outcome Measures
Erection Hardness Score(EHS)
EHS can be a helpful tool to evaluate ED - a man's inability to get or maintain an erection firm enough for sex. To select one of the following options:
0 Penis does not enlarge
Penis is larger, but not hard
Penis is hard, but not hard enough for penetration
Penis is hard enough for penetration, but not completely hard
Penis is completely hard and fully rigid
Duplex - Peak systolic velocity(PSV)
To assess penile hemodynamics - Penile arterial blood velocity record (cm/s)
Duplex - Resistance index(RI)
To assess penile hemodynamics - Penile vascular resistance Index

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
RPR contains rich-in growth factors and has the properties of helping tissue regeneration and nerve repair. In theory, it is possibility of curing ED.
Detailed Description
There are many reasons of erectile dysfunction(ED). If left untreated, there is a major impact on relationships, self-esteem, and overall health. RPR contains rich-in growth factors and has the properties of helping tissue regeneration and nerve repair. Its mechanism is to promote the regeneration of blood vessels in the cavernous body of the penis, increase blood circulation, and then help erection, increase penile stiffness and improve the phenomenon of premature ejaculation. The main purpose of this study is to study the safety and effectiveness of PRP injection for the treatment of ED.
