What role does postpartum oxytocin have?
Oxytocin is a peptide hormone. Secreted by the posterior pituitary gland. It is synthesized by hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus and supraoptic nucleus. It consists of nine amino acids. Delivered to the neurohypophysis at a rate of 2 mm to 3 mm per day for release. Methionine residues at positions "1" and "6" form a cyclic structure of six peptides in the form of disulfide bonds. Its physiological function: stimulate the mammary gland to secrete milk, promote the smooth contraction of uterus during childbirth, and promote the role of maternal love. In addition, it can also reduce the level of stress hormones such as adrenaline in human body, thus lowering blood pressure. It is not a woman's patent, both men and women can secrete it. [ 1]
physiological action
(1) Effect on mammary gland: Lactating mammary gland continuously secretes milk under the action of prolactin and stores it in mammary gland acinus. Oxytocin can contract myoepithelioid cells around mammary gland acinus and promote milk ejection of mammary gland with lactation function.
(2) Effect on uterus: Oxytocin has a strong contractile effect on uterus, but pregnant uterus is more sensitive. Estrogen can increase the sensitivity of uterus to oxytocin, while progesterone is the opposite. [3] (3) The role of social shyness and autism: Oxytocin can help people who are left out because of shyness in social situations overcome social shyness. But oxytocin nasal spray doesn't work on people who are already confident.
(4) When you are cheerful or have a strong sense of belonging, oxytocin will be secreted in your heart and the pressure will be reduced. At the same time, the oxygen supply of tissues in the body is greatly increased. [2]
special function
Affect the relationship between the baby and the mother
Experiments show that mothers in memory will become more concerned and considerate after using oxytocin for people who have established close attachment in infancy; But for people who were relatively indifferent to their mothers from infancy, oxytocin deepened their bad memories.
Women's divorce genes
The test results show that it is generally difficult for women who carry the A allele of oxytocin receptor gene variant to maintain close relationship with others and enter the marriage hall. Even if they are married, compared with those women who don't carry this genetic variation, their chances of marriage hitting the rocks or eventually divorcing are 50% higher. Researchers call allele A "divorce gene". However, men who marry women with "divorce genes" have lower marital satisfaction. [3]
Secretory regulation
The secretion of oxytocin is mainly regulated by nerve reflex. When the baby sucks the nipple, the stimulation information is transmitted to the supraoptic nucleus and paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus, which causes oxytocin secretion and makes the breast pat, which is called breast pat reflex and belongs to neuroendocrine reflex. On this basis, conditioned reflex can be formed, and crying or touching of the baby can cause breast ejection.
During childbirth, the cervix and vagina are squeezed and pulled, which can reflect the secretion of oxytocin and contribute to childbirth. Although oxytocin can stimulate uterine contraction, it is not the decisive factor to start uterine contraction during labor. In addition, emotional reactions such as panic and anxiety will inhibit oxytocin secretion. [2]
