Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have bipolar disorder with severe manic episodes and endometriosis. I was informed that both diseases are caused by overproducing oxytocin, so I am trying to lower my oxytocin levels. How can I lower my oxytocin levels?
Kindly help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Thank you for your query.
I understand your concern. Bipolar is not caused by oxytocin imbalance. Bipolar is caused by neurotransmitter imbalance or oxytocin and has genetic or heredity factors. I do not think balancing your oxytocin levels can cure or treat your problem. I suggest you to regularly follow up with your doctor and have a mood stabilizer.
I hope this has helped you. Thank you.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
