When we are stressed, the adrenal glands produce and release the stress hormones called – cortisol & adrenaline into the bloodstream. Cortisol & adrenaline the “stress hormones,” cause negative impact on brain, increase the heart rate and blood pressure.
Whereas the opposite of stress hormones, the “Happy hormones” – oxytocin, dopamine, and serotonin are produced when we are happy especially after sex.
During orgasm, the brain works more and produces more happy hormones.
Among these happy hormones, dopamine is responsible for feelings of pleasure, desire and motivation.
When we get orgasm, our brain becomes flooded with dopamine. This causes intense pleasure and well-being.
