Improve Your Sexual Wellness

PT-141 (Bremelanotide) is a non-hormonal peptide treatment that stimulates sexual desire and arousal by acting directly on the brain’s melanocortin receptors. Unlike therapies that rely on hormone levels or blood flow, PT-141 targets the nervous system—helping boost libido, sensitivity, and sexual satisfaction for women at any stage of life. 

It’s particularly effective for those experiencing low desire, difficulty with arousal, or sexual dysfunction related to stress, aging, or hormonal shifts. Administered as a subcutaneous injection 30–60 minutes before intimacy, PT-141 can work within the hour, with effects lasting up to 24 hours. Many women feel more confident, emotionally connected, and in tune with their partner after using it.

FAQ

PT-141 (Bremelanotide) is a peptide used to enhance sexual desire and arousal in women. Unlike other medications that work through hormonal pathways or blood flow, PT-141 acts directly on the brain’s melanocortin receptors to stimulate libido naturally.

PT-141 targets the central nervous system, specifically the hypothalamus, which regulates sexual desire. By activating these receptors, PT-141 helps increase sexual interest, arousal, and sensitivity—without relying on hormone levels.
