Oxytocin is a mammalian neurohypophysial hormone. Produced by the hypothalamus and stored and secreted by
the posterior pituitary gland, oxytocin acts primarily as a neuromodulator in the brain.
Oxytocin plays an important role in the neuroanatomy of intimacy, specifically in sexual reproduction of both sexes,
in particular during and after childbirth; its name, meaning "swift childbirth", comes from Greek, oksys "swift" and ,
tokos "birth." It is released in large amounts after distension of the cervix and uterus during labor, facilitating birth,
maternal bonding, and, after stimulation of the nipples,lactation. Both childbirth and milk ejection result from positive
feedback mechanisms.
Oxytocin is a hormone that is made in the brain, in the hypothalamus, and it is transported to, and secreted by, the pituitary gland,
which is located at the base of the brain.Chemically it is known as a nonapeptide (a peptide containing nine amino acids), and
biologically, as a neuropeptide.It acts both as a hormone and as a brain neurotransmitter.In both men and women, sexual
intercourse stimulates the release of oxytocin, which has a role in erection and orgasm.The reason for this is not fully understood,
although in women, it has been proposed that the increased uterine motility may help sperm to reach their destination.
