UTERUS: oxytocin (OT)

Oxytocin stimulates the uterine muscles to contract and also increases production of prostaglandins, which increase the contractions further. - https://www.yourhormones.info/hormones/oxytocin/
The neurohypophyseal hormone oxytocin (OT) is the most potent uterotonic agent known and is used to induce labor. - https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.1598587
