How Desire works
Desire is a fast-dissolving sublingual tablet for low sexual desire. Its primary active, bremelanotide, is a melanocortin receptor agonist thought to act on the brain pathways involved in sexual desire, paired with oxytocin, a hormone associated with bonding and closeness. It's taken on-demand, about 30 minutes before intimacy, as sexual wellness support rather than a guaranteed outcome.
How do I take Desire?
Dissolve ¼ to 1 flexible-dose tablet under your tongue about 30 minutes before sexual activity. Your provider will help you find your starting dose. Do not take more than one tablet in 24 hours, given cardiovascular considerations.
Is Desire right for me?
Desire is intended for adult women with low sexual desire and no uncontrolled cardiovascular risk factors. Because bremelanotide can affect blood pressure, a provider reviews your cardiovascular history and current medications (including naltrexone, which shouldn't be combined with it) before prescribing. It's framed as wellness support, and your provider will help set realistic expectations.

Why Desire works

The science behind Desire

Couple close together
The Biology

Desire starts in the brain, long before the body catches up. A network called the melanocortin system is what flips the switch on wanting. When that signal quiets, sex simply stops crossing your mind, even when your life is good and your partner is right there.

How This Helps

Bremelanotide switches that same system back on. Instead of forcing a physical response, it works on wanting itself, so desire returns the way it used to arrive, on its own, unprompted, before you even think about it. It's the rare treatment built for the craving, not just the act.*

Couple close together
The Biology

Desire and connection feed each other. When you feel close and safe, wanting comes easily; when you feel distant or on edge, it quietly shuts down, and the gap between you and your partner grows wider.

How This Helps

Oxytocin is the hormone your body releases during touch, closeness, and orgasm, the one that makes you want to pull someone closer. Paired with bremelanotide, it softens the walls that stress builds up, so wanting comes with warmth toward your partner, not pressure.*

Frequently asked questions

Who is Desire for?
Desire is intended for adult women, premenopausal or postmenopausal, with self-reported low sexual desire and no uncontrolled cardiovascular risk factors. A provider reviews your blood pressure, cardiovascular history, and current medications to determine if it's appropriate. It's offered as sexual wellness support, and results vary from person to person.
When and how do I take Desire?
Dissolve ¼ to 1 flexible-dose tablet under your tongue about 30 minutes before sexual activity. Your provider sets your starting dose. Never take more than one tablet in 24 hours, an important limit given cardiovascular considerations.
What's included in the price?
If prescribed: your Desire medication, free discreet shipping, and unlimited provider follow-ups, including dose adjustments and safety re-screening at each renewal. No hidden fees, no insurance needed.
Why do you ask about blood pressure and other medications?
Bremelanotide can affect blood pressure, so uncontrolled hypertension or known cardiovascular disease is a contraindication, and our intake documents your cardiovascular history carefully. We also screen specifically for naltrexone, which reduces bremelanotide's effectiveness and shouldn't be combined with it. Tell your provider if you're ever newly prescribed either.
Is Desire safe?
When prescribed appropriately after screening, Desire is designed to be well tolerated. The most common side effects are nausea, flushing, and headache. There is also a rare risk of permanent focal skin darkening, which appears more likely in people with darker skin tones, something your provider will counsel you on specifically. Seek care for any significant rise in blood pressure or severe, persistent nausea. We screen for cardiovascular risk, naltrexone use, and enforce a strict frequency limit, and re-screen at every renewal.
Will anyone know?
No. Your assessment is private, your medication ships in plain unmarked packaging, your billing descriptor is discreet, and your health information is protected under HIPAA.
Does Desire qualify for HSA/FSA?
Yes. Use your HSA or FSA card at checkout. Contact your plan provider to confirm eligibility and reimbursement details.
Can I adjust or cancel my plan?
Anytime. Adjust your plan with your provider, pause, or cancel from your Shed portal. No fees, no long-term contracts.
