I've been thinking over this oxitocine questions that every now and then arise. Have been asking around myself as well.
IF it really is oxitocine the moms in these cases are reacting to, shouldn't they have any symptoms surrounding orgasmes and childbirth. These 2 even úse"higher doses of oxitocin than breastfeeding. If moms only have itching, headaches, nausea, blackouts, etc during breastfeeding and not with other events that go with oxitocin, is it not better to look for other explanatons than oxitocin?
Any thoughts?

Warmly,
