PT-141: A Holistic, Drug-Free Way to Improve Erectile Dysfunction (ED)

Erectile dysfunction while common can zap your confidence and impact your relationships. If you’re struggling with erectile dysfunction but not interested in oral medication like viagra or cialis, you’re not out of options. 

At Performance Rejuvenation Center our  men’s health experts and  Dr. Kirt Tyson offer peptide therapy — specifically PT-141 — to men who want to boost their libido and improve erectile dysfunction sans drugs.

Read on to learn how PT-141  can help you overcome erectile dysfunction.

What is PT-141?

PT-141, also known as bremelanotide, is a peptide that was initially treated for sexual arousal disorders in women. However, its unique mechanism of action (i.e., how it works in your body) has also proven effective in addressing erectile dysfunction in men. 

Unlike traditional erectile dysfunction medications, which affect your vascular system and increase blood flow to your penis, PT-141 affects your nervous system. Specifically, PT-141 targets the melanocortin receptors in your brain. These receptors are involved in your body’s sexual response system, so when they’re activated, you’re more likely to experience increased desire and libido.

Because PT-141 doesn’t rely on the vascular system to produce an erection, it’s considered a suitable option for men who can’t take traditional erectile dysfunction medications due to underlying health conditions, such as heart disease or high blood pressure.

Benefits of PT-141 for erectile dysfunction

You might consider PT-141 because:

It is a drug-free alternative

PT-141 doesn’t interfere with blood flow or cardiovascular function, so it’s safer for men with certain health conditions. Since PT-141 doesn’t rely on the vascular system, it has no known interactions with other medications, making it a flexible option for men already taking other prescriptions.

It delivers targeted action

PT-141 targets the arousal centers in your brain and can address sexual dysfunction issues rooted in psychological causes, such as stress, performance anxiety, or low libido.

It extends the duration of your erection

Research shows intranasal applications of PT-141 can boost erection duration by up to 60%. Before taking PT-141, the average duration of erection of the study participants was 49.4 minutes compared to the post-treatment duration of 137.7 minutes.

It is fast-acting 

PT-141 typically gets administered via an injection or oral capsule or troche, but you won't have to wait weeks or even days for its effects to kick in. Many men feel the effects within 30 minutes to a few hours.

Is PT-141 right for you?

PT-141 may be a suitable option if you’re looking for a drug-free approach to managing erectile dysfunction if traditional treatments haven’t worked for you or aren’t an option due to medical reasons.

Your first step is to schedule your virtual call with Dr. Tyson to get started with PT-141 (or any other peptide therapy). Once your blood work is complete, he reviews your labs and confirms that PT-141 is right for you.
