Abstract

We measured plasma oxytocin (OT) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) concentrations in 13 normal men during sexual arousal and ejaculation. Mean plasma AVP increased from 1.4 +/- 0.2 (+/- SE) to 5.3 +/- 1.7 pmol/L (P less than 0.05) during arousal, but there was no significant change in OT. In contrast, at ejaculation mean plasma OT rose from a basal value of 1.4 +/- 0.3 to 7.3 +/- 0.6 pmol/L (P less than 0.01) and then fell to basal concentrations in 30 min. AVP, however, had returned to basal levels at the time of ejaculation and remained stable thereafter. We conclude that in man AVP is secreted during sexual arousal, and there is, subsequently, a selective release of OT at the time of ejaculation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
