Pheromones are said to affect our chances for attracting the opposite sex. It is because of this idea that many scientists have sought for ways on how use human pheromones as an attractant. And although debates have gone on about the existence of human pheromones as well as its effect in human attraction, many have already concluded that pheromones in humans can also be used as an attractant.
Existence of Human Pheromones Although pheromones are more commonly known among animals and insects, recent studies had suggested that human pheromones also exist. And according to these studies, human pheromones had also been known for its effect as an attractant.
Three Difference Sources of Human Pheromones The focus of the experiments on human pheromones has been on three classes of putative pheromones: axillary steroids, vaginal aliphatic acids, and stimulators of the vomeronasal organ. And from all of these, the axillary steroids are known to play the largest role as an attractant.
Van Toller, one of the many scientists that researched the existence of human pheromones, had concluded that androstenone, one of three axillary steroids, has been used by males as an attractant for women and is also thought to be a positive effector for their mood. In addition to that, this pheromone can also be used by males to to detect an ovulating female who would be more willingly to be involved in sexual interaction, which is why this is one of the many pheromone advantage.
Other popular axillary steroids used as pheromones include the Androstenol, a putative female pheromone which is said to increase other people’s perception for attractiveness, and the androstadienone, which causes a positive reaction in women, often improving their moods. These three altogether is the perfect substance that many scientists had used in developing pheromone products, such as pheromone colognes and perfumes.
The vaginal aliphatic acids, on the other hand, are combination of different vaginal acids that are used to signal ovulation. This is used primarily to attract men for procreation or, in this case, one-night-stands.
Another popular source of human pheromones is the human vomeronasal organ, which serve as the primary receptor or sensory organ for pheromones. Milinski and colleagues found that the artificial odors that people chose are determined in part by their major histocompatibility complexes (MHC) combination.
Information about an individual’s immune system could be used as a way of "sexual selection" so that the female could obtain good genes for her offspring. [17] Wedekind and colleagues found that both men and women prefer the axillary odors of people whose MHC is different from their own.
