estrogen... enlargment of the gland

progesteron... development of ducts and alveoli

prolactin... secretion of milk

oxytocin... contraction of myoepithelial cell

So, oxytocin ... but i just want to make sure of the psychological part of the Q

I say prolactine.
Oxytocin will contract to help the milk go out, but prolactin is the queen

i read in physio forum

Oxytocin oozes milk

Prolactin Produces milkwink

Easy to remember. Plus , it takes time for milk to be produced, so i guess ,oxytocin is also logically correct ,for immediate response to a psychological stimulus.

mostly suckling is the main sensory input for milk ejection.In the woman oxytocin release is often associated with such stimuli as the sight or sound or even the thought of the infant indicating a large cerebral component in this "neuroendocrine reflex".

  #23
