This short YouTube video (created/uploaded by Anne Truong MD on Aug 13, 2023) states that amniotic tissue contains growth factors—transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)—which may stimulate new blood vessels, nerves, and possibly smooth muscle in the penis. The speaker emphasizes that using amniotic tissue to treat erectile dysfunction is very new, shows only early promise, may be ineffective or unsafe, and is not FDA-approved.

In the amniotic tissue you can find such growth factors such as transforming growth factor beta, tgf, hyphen beta and vascular endothelial growth factor VEGF, and platelet derived growth factor pdgf. All these growth factors can help with stimulating the growth of new blood vessels, nerve and perhaps even smooth muscle and the penis. However, the use of amniotic tissue to treat ED is still very very new research and it shows promising, but it can potentially become ineffective and may not be safe at this time and it's not approved by fda.
