Hi all,
I found an an old post in the archives that mentioned a study that was conducted on the two compounds
of Estradienol and Methoxyestateraene... I am wondering does anyone know what these compounds are and are they being
used in any pheromone products as the results of the study seemed promising. Here is the abstract of the
study:
Dr. Regina E. Maiworm (1998):
Influence of estradienol and methoxyestateraene on the assessment of the
opposite sex.
Abstract
In a double blind study estradienol, methoxyestateraene or the controls cholesterol
or mineral oil were applied to the upper lip of 240 men and women. Before the application a standardized test about
the mood was administered. After the application five persons (standardized whole-body photographs) of the opposite
sex were rated on 19 bipolar, seven stepped ratingscales. Each subject rated the five persons one by one. After the
rating the test about the moood was conducted again. The session was finished by a structured interview. Each
subject was tested individually by a same sex experimenter. Physiological parameters (respiration, heart rate, skin
conductance) were measured during each session. Under estradienol the men were rated by women as better, harder and
more nonchalant than under control. Under the influence of methoxyestateraene the women were rated by men as better,
kinder and they were much more liked than under control.
