Erectile dysfunction (ED) affects up to one-third of men at some point in their lives, not only preventing them from enjoying intercourse with their partners but also creating a tremendous amount of shame and anxiety.1 2 Moreover, in about 40% of cases, even the most well-known and effective ED drugs fail to produce a satisfactory response owing to side effects or ineffectiveness.13 In those cases, the peptide PT-141 has shown some promise as an unconventional alternative or adjunct treatment
