Oxytocin is a peptide hormone, which is secreted by the posterior pituitary gland and synthesized by the paravicular and supraoptic nuclei of the hypothalamus. It consists of nine amino acids and is transported to the neuropituitary gland for release at a rate of 2 to 3 millimeters per day. Cysteine (Cys) residues at the "1" and "6" positions form a hexapeptide ring structure in the form of disulfide bonds.
Oxytocin stimulates the secretion of milk by the mammary gland, promotes the contraction of the smooth muscle of the uterus during childbirth, and promotes the role of maternal love. In addition, it reduces the level of stress hormones such as adrenalin in the body to lower blood pressure. It is not exclusively for women. It can be secreted by both men and women
Oxytocin can be absorbed from the oral mucosa and selectively act on the smooth muscle of the uterus, causing the uterus to contract. Suitable for birth and slow labor. The effect is the same as that of oxytocin. It is prohibited for women who have a history of pelvic stenosis, uterine surgery (including caesarean section), excessive labor pains, obstructed birth canal, placental abruption, and severe pregnancy poisoning. Uterine contractions. Used for inducing labor, oxytocin, postpartum and post-abortion uterine bleeding caused by weak contractions. Nasal drops can induce milk discharge.
