PT-141, also known as Bremelanotide, is a synthetic hormone that was originally developed to treat sexual dysfunction. It works by activating the melanocortin 4 receptor which is involved in regulating sexual arousal and desire.
Some key things to know about PT-141:
- It is designed to treat hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) or a lack of libido in both men and women.
- PT-141 is administered as a subcutaneous injection or a nasal spray.
- It helps increase sexual arousal by activating areas of the brain involved in sexual response.
- Side effects may include nausea, flushing, headaches and increases in blood pressure.
In studies,
PT-141 has been shown to significantly boost libido and sexual satisfaction. For example, in one trial of women with HSDD, those taking PT-141 were more likely to report improvements in their sex lives compared to those taking a placebo.
"PT-141 allowed me to regain intimacy with my partner and improve my quality of life." says Sam W., a patient at
Hormone Harmony.
