Orgasms release copious amounts of oxytocin therefore I am a big advocate for female orgasms during labour when things start to slow down or stall. If it is a choice between synthetic oxytocin and real oxytocin, what would you rather have? Just put a sign on your door saying “Please keep out – orgasm in progress” which not only allows you time with your partner in a quiet, undisturbed environment at least for a short period, but also so you can achieve an orgasm if required.
