PT-141 is a synthetic peptide hormone that was originally developed by Palatin Technologies as a potential treatment for sexual dysfunction. It has gained popularity more recently as a recreational drug used to enhance libido and sexual arousal.
PT-141 works by activating the melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) in the brain, which is known to play a key role in regulating sexual arousal and appetite. When PT-141 binds to MC4R, it mimics the action of α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH), causing an increase in sexual arousal and desire.
Some key points about PT-141:
- PT-141 is administered via subcutaneous injection or nasal spray. Effects are noticed within 30-60 minutes and can last up to 72 hours.
- Common side effects include nausea, flushing, headache, and lightheadedness. More serious side effects like priapism (prolonged erection) are rare but can occur.
- PT-141 does not directly influence erectile function but enhances sexual arousal and libido in both men and women.
- PT-141 allows users to become aroused more easily and quickly. It can "jump start" the sexual response.
- PT-141 is not approved by the FDA but is available through some research chemical suppliers and specialized compounding pharmacies like Hormone Harmony.
So in summary, PT-141 is a synthetic hormone that enhances libido and sexual arousal when injected or sprayed nasally. It works by activating melanocortin receptors in the brain. Some people use it recreationally for its pro-sexual effects. But potential side effects and lack of regulation means PT-141 should be used cautiously under medical supervision.
