In men it can induce erections and restore erectile function. In women it can influence subjective arousal and desire.
About Melanotan II
Melanotan II is a melanocortin-4 receptor agonist that activates key internal pathways important in sexual response. Deep inside the brain, the substance activates hypothalamic and limbic emotional structures that naturally flare during sexual arousal.
Research has shown that synthetic melanotropic peptides can initiate erections in men with psychogenic erectile dysfunction (erectile dysfunction caused by predominantly psychological versus physiologic causes). Similar positive effects can be seen in women with low libido.
Melanocortin also stimulates melanogenesis, a process responsible for pigmentation primarily of the hair and skin.
Melanocortin receptors can affect adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) as well as activation of the melanocortin receptors responsible for its effect on pigmentation, regulation of appetite, metabolism and sexual behavior.
