In order to elucidate the diurnal and circadian rhythms of oxytocin secretion, and the relation of estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and LH-RH to oxytocin secretion, plasma oxytocin levels were determined before and after the administration of these hormones in normal and hypogonadal subjects. The results were as follows. (1) In females with normal menstrual cycle, plasma oxytocin levels in the morning after overnight fasting were significantly higher (4.5 ± 2.6 pg/ml (mean ± SE)) in the follicular phase than they were (2.1 ± 1.3 pg/ml) in the luteal phase (p<0.01). Plasma oxytocin levels were higher in the follicular and ovulatory phases than they were in the luteal phase. In the luteal phase, the mean oxytocin concentration was higher during sleeping than during waking; however, in the follicular phase a variation of plasma oxytocin level was higher during waking than during sleeping. (2) In healthy males, plasma oxytocin level in the morning after overnight fasting was 3.5 ± 1.7 pg/ml, which was higher during sleeping than during waking. But the variation of plasma oxytocin levels during waking was larger than that during sleeping. Plasma oxytocin levels did not show cyclic changes in a year, but they were higher in summer than in winter. (3) Plasma oxytocin levels rose significantly after estradiol administration in normal females and males and did not change significantly after progesterone, and estradiol and
