The influence of hormones on human relationships

We naively believe that we make decisions on our own, of our own free will we show interest in someone and reject someone, of our own free will we unite our destiny with someone. In fact, many of our actions - especially when it comes to communicating with the opposite sex - are guided by amazing chemical compounds full of mysteries and secrets - hormones.

The female hormones estrogen and progesterone play a key role in the formation of femininity, reproductive function and maternal instincts. The male hormone testosterone is responsible for aggression, sexuality and the ability to spatial orientation. The hormone prolactin stimulates lactation in women.

Hormonal imbalance can lead to psychological and physiological problems. Sexual activity and family relationships are also influenced by hormones. Optimal hormonal balance is important for a harmonious relationship between a man and a woman.
