Short answer

The documented benefit of PT-141 (bremelanotide) is for acquired, generalised hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in premenopausal women — the FDA-approved Vyleesi indication. In the RECONNECT trials, bremelanotide improved desire scores and reduced distress versus placebo over 24 weeks, without a significant increase in satisfying sexual events. Nausea affected about 40% of treated participants. It is not approved for male erectile dysfunction and is not authorised in Canada.
