This trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 3 fixed dose levels of bremelanotide, administered subcutaneously on an as-needed basis under conditions of home use, for the treatment of female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD), hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD), or mixed FSAD/HSDD in premenopausal women.

Detailed description:

Arms:
arm 1: Same formulation as the investigation product but without the active ingredient, provided as pre-filled syringes containing 0.3 mL volume. Subjects will self-administer the placebo by SC injection in the same manner as the investigational product. arm 2: Low dose: Investigational product: Bremelanotide aqueous solution for subcutaneous (SC) injection, provided as pre-filled syringes containing 0.75 mg in 0.3 mL volume. Subjects will self-administer bremelanotide by SC injection into the anterior thigh or abdomen. arm 3: Middle dose: Investigational product: Bremelanotide aqueous solution for subcutaneous (SC) injection, provided as pre-filled syringes containing 1.25 mg in 0.3 mL volume. Subjects will self-administer bremelanotide by SC injection into the anterior thigh or abdomen. arm 4: High dose: Investigational product: Bremelanotide aqueous solution for subcutaneous (SC) injection, provided as pre-filled syringes containing 1.75 mg in 0.3 mL volume. Subjects will self-administer bremelanotide by SC injection into the anterior thigh or abdomen.

Interventions: intervention 1: bremelanotide
Intervention descriptions: intervention 1: Subjects will administer drug on an as needed basis, prior to anticipated sexual activity.
