Stimulating the clitoris during birthing results in a huge release of the birthing hormone oxytocin.

➜ Many women instinctively touch their clitoris during pressure waves and as the baby crowns.

➜ Clitoral stimulation can help open and soften the cervix and potentially turn strong discomfort sensations into pleasure.

➜ Physiologically the surges experienced during birthing are similar to the surges experienced during an orgasm.
