<span>Because an increase in oxytocin level increases the contractions </span>

Oxytocin can be defined as a hormone that usually acts on organs of the body which includes the uterus and breast. They can also act as a chemical messenger in the brain by controlling some important aspect of reproductive system such as lactation and childbirth.
