(PRWEB) September 14, 2005 -- According to pheromones-web.com, pheromones are essentially chemical messengers released by animals that affect other animals. Usually they serve to communicate something about territory, reproduction and caring of offspring, the presence of danger, or even the presence of a rival.
Pheromones have even been classified based on their uses into three classes:
Primer pheromones shift the hormonal balance in the receiver; releaser pheromones produce specific behavior patterns like avoidance or attraction; finally, information pheromones convey information about the producer to the receiver, including health, fertility, et cetera.
As pheromones-web.com explains, human pheromones are continuously studied by scientists in an effort to understand the extent to which they affect us. Some scientists claim that the organ responsible for detecting pheromones in most mammals, the vomeronasal organ, is almost nonexistent in humans and that we have evolved to the point where humans no longer use these chemical odor signals.
Synthesized human pheromones like androstenedione and estratetraenol, used topically, have been studied and shown to significantly increase the frequency of sociosexual behavior in participants using the pheromones as opposed to the placebo. These results have helped launch a variety of products claiming to have a put a "pheromone to attract women" in a bottle or vice versa.
