Mr. & Mrs. Happy
In my book Is it HOT, I wrote about PT 141, now known as Bremelanotide. This nasal spray is in Phase III testing and has had good results in desire and arousal for women and men, and has an additional “boner benefit† in men – in other words, everything we need to create instant Mr. and Mrs. Happy in the bedroom. Downsides in some testers are nausea, flushing, and an increase in blood pressure and menstrual bleeding, so they’ll have to work that out and we’ll have to continue to be healthy if we want to enjoy this stuff when it hits pharmacies. Also in the running for the Mr. & Mrs. Happy Crown is the topical drug Alprostadil. Men rub it right where you think they would and women have been successful treating FSAD (arousal disorder), and everybody’s very happy! I’m excited about this product because it doesn’t have to be processed through the gut or the brain, so it works faster and in a more localized way. It may raise blood pressure, but only in a good way, if you know what I mean. That’s always a plus when people are taking other medications – less chance to have a negative interaction. The NexMed and Palatin Technology websites don’t give a date for either product, since FDA approval could drag on for another year or so.
