Article examines oxytocin and menopause symptoms

A Japanese article by Obirin University professor Hajime Yamaguchi discusses oxytocin and menopause.

It describes poor sleep, hot flashes and irritability as symptoms women may experience during menopause.

The article says oxytocin helps the body repair itself.

It also says some common behavior does not increase oxytocin, but the excerpt does not name that behavior.

The topic matters because the hormone is presented as relevant to physical well-being during menopause.

The excerpt gives no specific advice or next steps.
