Study Summary

This trial is unblinded and sequential, meaning all subjects will receive the same treatment of an IV infusion of oxytocin. Blood samples will be taken to study the pharmacokinetics, or how oxytocin concentrates in the blood over time. The study will also test how oxytocin changes perceptions on the skin, of pain and vibration, and how this relates to the amount of oxytocin in the blood.
