How vyleesi works

Vyleesi reignites desire in your brain

Scientific studies show that sexual desire begins in the brain, where chemical messengers activate specific pathways. Vyleesi is a nonhormonal treatment designed to work with those pathways. It mimics natural signals and activates melanocortin receptors—essential switches that help turn on sexual desire. In short: Vyleesi helps flip the brain’s “on switch” for desire.

Vyleesi fits seamlessly into your life:

FDA approved—proven to increase your desire and reduce your distress

Take Vyleesi 45 minutes prior to sexual activity. Vyleesi reaches maximum concentration in your body within 30–60 minutes

You choose when to spark your desire—no daily dosing! 

Safe to use with alcohol—date night approved!

“I’ve been having more sexual thoughts and more interest in initiating.”

Vyleesi results: the stats behind the spark*

In clinical trials, women taking Vyleesi saw:

Significant boost in desire:

164% INCREASE in desire (+0.58 mean change) vs those taking placebo (+0.22 mean change)†

Notable decrease in distress:

75% DECREASE in distress related to sexual desire (-0.7 mean change) vs those taking placebo (-0.4 mean change)‡

*The Vyleesi pivotal trials measured improvements in HSDD symptoms. The efficacy and safety of Vyleesi was studied in 2 identical, 24-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials in 1247 premenopausal women with acquired, generalized HSDD.

†Scores range from 1.2 (lowest desire) to 6 (highest desire).

‡Scores range from 0 (Never feel bothered) to 4 (Always feel bothered).

“I hadn’t felt the desire in so long. But it was a joy for me for the same reason; I hadn’t felt it in so long.”

Understanding possible side effects

Some women may experience side effects, the most common being nausea, flushing, injection site reactions, headaches, and vomiting.

A note about nausea before your first dose

You may experience some nausea after your first dose; it may start during the first hour and last for about 2 hours.

Nausea improved for most women with the second dose, but could occur intermittently with continued use.

Some patients prefer to start with their first dose on a day when they don’t have big plans, so they can see how their body responds.

Nausea events were mostly mild to moderate and typically didn’t require treatment. If nausea bothers you, ask your healthcare provider about prescribing an antiemetic (anti-nausea and vomiting) treatment.

the lowdown on low libido

Sexual desire starts in the brain

Hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) is a medical condition that is associated with ongoing and frustrating lack of interest in sex (low libido).

Desire isn’t just about the body; it’s about the brain.

From quiet daydreams to sudden thrills, the brain—especially among women—drives sexual desire. In women diagnosed with HSDD, an imbalance of neurotransmitters (chemical messengers) in the brain may result in low sexual desire.

HSDD also causes distress related to low desire.

This may manifest as feelings of frustration, sadness, or relationship strain. But if you’re experiencing HSDD, it’s not the fault of you or your relationship, and you’re not alone. Plenty of women struggle with HSDD.

HSDD affects ~1 in 10 women in the US

Could you be experiencing HSDD?

The Decreased Sexual Desire Screener (DSDS) is a simple tool to help you start the conversation about HSDD with your healthcare provider.

You can review it together and talk through what you’re experiencing, and your healthcare provider can help explain the results and work with you to decide next steps.
