Oxytocin Acetate CAS:6233-83-6

Oxytocin is a hormone produced by the hypothalamus and secreted by the pituitary gland. This important
hormone plays a crucial role in the childbirth process.

In women, oxytocin is responsible for signaling contractions of the womb during labor. The hormone stimulates
the uterine muscles to contract, so labor begins. It also increases the production of prostaglandins, which move
labor along and increases the contractions even more.

For men, oxytocin function is less important, but it does have a role to play in moving sperm. It also appears to
affect the production of testosterone in the testes.

Studies of oxytocin also have found that it is an important chemical messenger that controls some human behaviors
and social interaction. It is oxytocin that triggers the bond between a mother and an infant, and it may also play a role
in recognition, sexual arousal, trust, and anxiety. Some research shows that the hormone may affect addiction and stress as well.
