What Is PT-141?

PT-141 (Bremelanotide), marketed as Vyleesi, is an FDA-approved peptide for treating hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in premenopausal women. Unlike medications that work on blood flow alone, PT-141 acts on the central nervous system—specifically melanocortin receptors in the hypothalamus—to address the brain’s role in sexual desire and arousal.

This represents a fundamentally different approach to sexual wellness, targeting desire at its neurological source. PT-141 is the first and only centrally-acting, FDA-approved treatment for low sexual desire in women.

PT-141 is also used off-label for libido concerns in men, where early clinical experience suggests potential benefits for desire and erectile function.

FAQ

Click on a question to see more

  • How does PT-141 work?

    PT-141 activates melanocortin receptors (MC3R and MC4R) in the hypothalamus, the brain region involved in sexual arousal and desire. Unlike Viagra or Cialis which work on blood flow, PT-141 addresses desire at its neurological source.

  • How is PT-141 administered?

    The FDA-approved dosing is subcutaneous injection at least 45 minutes before anticipated sexual activity. Nasal spray options are also available through compounding pharmacies. Maximum recommended use is 8 doses per month.

  • What are the side effects?

    The most common side effect is nausea (approximately 40% of patients), which is usually mild and temporary. Flushing and headache may also occur. PT-141 can cause temporary blood pressure increases, which is why cardiovascular screening is required.

  • Is PT-141 FDA-approved?

    Yes. PT-141 (marketed as Vyleesi) received FDA approval in June 2019 for treating HSDD in premenopausal women. It is the only FDA-approved treatment of its kind. Use in men is off-label.

  • Is this treatment confidential?

    Absolutely. All consultations and treatments at Cienega Medical are completely confidential. We understand the sensitive nature of sexual wellness concerns and provide a discreet, judgment-free environment.
