Though men do generate oxytocin, they don’t match the production levels in women. Men can easily release small amounts of oxytocin into a woman (increasing her “rush), thereby creating more of a bond between them. But it is harder for women to release it into men. Men, you don't have to have a child or an orgasm to release oxytocin within your brain and body. Consciously stick to behaviors that promote its production in areas of the body and brain that yield beneficial effects. Meditate, nurture others, reach out to connect with people, and make love in a way that keeps your heart open. Our homeopathic nasal formulation is designed to . . . .  

Women need to talk when stressed. Why? It raises her oxytocin. Men feel obligated to ignore the talk and get down to solving the problem. Yet, it is the act of talking that does the trick. Women, raise his oxytocin with out talking his ear off. Men, raise her oxytocin. Score some oxypoints by coming in under their radar.

Another theory has to do with how Cro-Magnon men and women procreated. In the early stages of evolution, men and women didn't have monogamous relationships. When a man was horny, he pretty much took whichever woman he wanted... the feeling of indifference and fatigue he felt after raping her, allowed her to escape.

So, all in all... men are wired to do what they do after sex. Despite what it seems, it has nothing to do with how they feel about us, or how indifferent they are to our wants and desires. They actually can't help it. So knowing this... I think all women should try to be a little more understanding when their guys roll over and start to snore. Besides... if you let him take a little nap, he'll be all ready for round 2 when he wakes up, well-rested.

New Study: “Cuddle hormone” makes men more sensitive and empathetic.

Nasal spray makes men tune in to others’ feelings

According to a new study of 48 volunteers, a nasal spray containing oxytocin, the “cuddle hormone,” can make men more in tune with others’ feelings. A team of German and British researchers found the spray made men just as empathetic as women, and boosted the ability to learn from positive feedback, which could help with behaviour therapy in conditions like schizophrenia. A naturally produced hormone, oxytocin is known to trigger labour pains and promote bonding between mother and baby. It also plays a role in social relations, sex and trust. In the study, half the men got oxytocin and half got a placebo. They then looked at photographs of images like a crying child, a girl hugging her cat, and a grieving man, and asked about their feelings. Those who got the spray had higher levels of empathy, usually seen in women. In another experiment, volunteers were asked to do an observation test and got an approving face if they got it right, and an unhappy face if wrong. Those who got the spray responded better to facial feedback.
