Synonyms: Metastin

Peptide or peptide-related · Peptide or peptide derivative

Detailed molecular class: Reproductive neuropeptide

Supplied sequence or chemical reference

See identity note; no supplier sequence accepted as verification.

Mechanism

KISS1R/GnRH-related reproductive signaling.

Evidence and critical reading

Reported scientific and empirical uses

Fertility and reproduction · Sexual function

Investigated for reproductive signaling/sexual response; not interchangeable with kisspeptin-10.

Human evidence

Crossover trial in men with HSDD studied brain processing and arousal, not durable everyday efficacy.

Preclinical evidence

Reproductive biology does not validate all fertility or libido claims.

Critical reading and limitations

The selected male HSDD trial was small/brief; it does not establish sustained fertility or a community SC regimen.

Evidence applies to the exact molecule, formulation, route, population and endpoint studied. Supplier identity, purity and clinical equivalence are unverified.

Source-specific regimens

Descriptive source observations, not individual recommendations.

Regulatory product labeling

No numerical human dose is assigned: reviewed sources did not verify a regimen attributable to this material, route and indication. Other molecules’ doses, animal exposures, vial amounts and dietary requirements are not substituted.

Human-study exposure

No numerical human dose is assigned: reviewed sources did not verify a regimen attributable to this material, route and indication. Other molecules’ doses, animal exposures, vial amounts and dietary requirements are not substituted.

Empirical handbook

No numerical human dose is assigned: reviewed sources did not verify a regimen attributable to this material, route and indication. Other molecules’ doses, animal exposures, vial amounts and dietary requirements are not substituted.

Regulation and safety

Jurisdiction-specific regulatory context

Jurisdiction-specific approval not verified in this card; do not infer global nonapproval.

Adverse effects and unknowns

Brief controlled exposure cannot establish long-term safety or hormonal-drug combinations.

Gonadal biomarkers and sexual effects do not replace long-term reproductive-safety assessment.

Contraindications

See supported safety statements and exact product label; a complete contraindication set has not been established for this catalog material.

A complete list must match the exact authorized product. For experimental materials without verified human labeling, a complete contraindication set is not established here. No list does not mean safety.

Interactions

Only explicitly cited interactions may be asserted; unstudied combinations remain unknown, not interaction-free.

Separate documented interaction, pharmacologic plausibility and unknown interaction. Absence of a blend trial does not establish compatibility.

Studies and trials

Selected studies

PMID36735255 · Randomized controlled trial

Men with hypoactive sexual desire; 32 completed.

IV infusion, acute crossover.

Changes in brain processing/arousal variables.

Acute markers are not chronic efficacy; do not extrapolate to SC kisspeptin-10.

n = 37
