Oxytocin, prolactin, and dopamine in plain words

Not theory. Not kink. Mammal fact.

I lead with my body.
My body leads my house.
Biology carries the signal.

This is how that works.

What placement changes in the body

The body learns from repeated events, not speeches.
When climax happens on my timing and in my presence, three chemicals do most of the work.

Oxytocin.
Prolactin.
Dopamine.

You do not need fancy language to use them.
You need clear timing, repetition, and direction.

Oxytocin

Bond. Soften. Stay near.

Oxytocin rises with touch, eye contact, holding, nursing, and climax.
In a man, it helps him calm, trust, and bond to the person who was there.
In a woman, it helps the body soften and receive without bracing.

What this means for placement:
When climax happens in my presence and under my say, oxytocin connects his feeling of safety to me.
His body learns where safety and belonging live.

What I feel: easier breathing, warmth in the chest, clarity, and certainty.
What he feels: ease, nearness, belonging, and joy.

Prolactin

Finish. Rest. Reset.

Prolactin spikes after climax in most men.
It marks completion and moves the body toward rest.

What this means for placement:
When I decide when the cycle completes, the rest that follows connects to me.
His body learns that quiet arrived because I closed the loop.

What I feel: my space drops into peace.
What he feels: quiet, stress powers down, permission to reset.

Dopamine

Focus. Reward. Repeat.

Dopamine marks what was rewarding, so the body wants to repeat what led to reward.
It is the signal that says: do this again.

What this means for placement:
When climax is paired with my timing or my voice, the reward signal attaches to me.
The next time his arousal rises, his body looks for my signal.

What I feel: ease of partnership, alignment, and joy.
What he feels: his focus and attention on me and where I direct.

Why repetition matters

Bodies learn through pairing.
Same cue. Same end. Same person.
Repeat it and the nervous system starts to expect it.
