Oxytocin Creates the Chemistry of Love

It’s true that love heals. Just think of those good feelings when you fell in love. There is a desire to bond, connect, protect, be with, have sex with and cuddle with your mate. If you are feeling isolated, lonely, and anxious, you may be deficient in oxytocin, a hormone that has many benefits.

Oxytocin is otherwise known as the love hormone or the cuddle hormone. It is released during orgasm as well as cuddling and touching. Its deficiency may be implicated when one is feeling socially isolated and disconnected. Research studies reveal that low levels of oxytocin are associated with increased risk of certain medical conditions such as:

  • Autism
  • Low estrogen states
  • Low thyroid (T3)
  • Depression
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Chronic stress situation
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Loneliness
  • Anxiety disorders
  • Schizophrenia

Oxytocin’s benefits go beyond the ability to achieve multiple orgasms, improve erections, increase bonding and developing monogamous relationships. Benefits include:

  • Decreased pain
  • Decreased anxiety
  • Decrease stress
  • Decreased aggression
  • Reduced cravings
  • Increased healing
  • Improved memory

Oxytocin evokes feelings of contentment

Furthermore, reductions in anxiety, and feelings of calmness and security around your mate. It instills trust and builds lasting bonds. So how do you get more of this feel good hormone? Skin to skin contact. It’s the cuddle hormone. If you are feeling isolated, lonely, depressed, or disconnected and less attracted to your mate, boost your oxytocin levels through:

  • Hugs
  • Kissing
  • Holding hands
  • Massage
  • Petting an animal
  • Sex
