INTRODUCTION: Sexual desire is a key component of the sexual response model. Absence or deficiency of sexual desire can lead to marked distress or interpersonal difficulty, termed 'hypoactive sexual desire disorder' (HSDD). HSDD is the most common female sexual health complaint worldwide, affecting 10% of women. Despite its detrimental impact on psychological well-being and quality of life, treatment options are currently limited. The hormone kisspeptin is a key endogenous activator of the reproductive endocrine axis, with emerging roles in sexual and emotional behaviour, and thus could serve as a novel treatment option in women with HSDD. HYPOTHESIS: Kisspeptin restores sexual brain processing in women with HSDD. METHODS: To test our hypothesis, we performed a randomized, double-blind, two-way crossover, placebo-controlled study in 32 (mean age ± SEM 29.2±1.2 years; BMI 23.1±0.5 kg/m2) premenopausal women with HSDD using psychometric assessments, functional neuroimaging, and hormonal assessments to investigate the effects of kisspeptin administration on brain activity, in response to erotic stimuli (erotic videos) and facial attraction (face images of varying attractiveness). Study visits were undertaken in the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle. RESULTS: Kisspeptin administration resulted in an increase in self-reported ratings of feeling 'sexy', compared to placebo, measured using the Sexual Arousal and Desire Inventory (t [32] =2.27, P=0.03). On functional MRI, kisspeptin administration deactivated the left inferior frontal gyrus and activated the postcentral and supramarginal gyrus in response to erotic videos (Z=2.3, P< 0.05). Kisspeptin administration deactivated the secondary somatosensory cortex (Z=2.3, P<0.05) and enhanced activation in the posterior cingulate cortex on viewing male faces, which correlated with a reduction in self-reported sexual aversion (r=0.476, P=0.005). Kisspeptin resulted in a mean increase in LH of 2.75 iU/L (F(1, 62) = 6.084, P=0.02) and FSH of 0.37 iU/L (F(1, . |
