Hi… just wondering if I stumbled upon a draft post or if this is the entire article? It’s kinda… brief… for such an interesting topic.

I’ve never heard of Tongkat Ali, so thatnks for the link to that, but to bring your other two ‘aphrodisiacs’ more uptodate:

Intrinsa has just this month become available with prescription to women by the NHS (Europe?) but the FDA did not approve it to be sold there.

And PT-141, and the site you linked to, is about a billion years out of date…
Pt-141 is now called Bremelanotide and still undergoing trials by Palatin Technologies who own and are developing it. FDA approval between 1 and 3 years away.

And while that Pt141 site you linked to is still talking about it being tested on rats, check out current press releases, websites, or the Bremelanotide Bulletin for the very latest results on men and women.

Just FYI for you and your readers.
