Unlike negative feedback, positive feedback'sare less common in the human body system.During the childbirth process, women will experience a decrease in the hormone named PROGESTERONE. This hormone is believed to initiate a small contractions of the uterus.Oxytocin causes much stronger contractions of the uterus. As the contraction increase in seize and length the baby moves towards the opening of the uterus.The descend of the baby causes stronger contractions, which release more oxytocin, which causes stronger contractions until the baby expels. Once the baby is expelled from the uterus the uterine contractions stop.The uterine contractions stop, stops the release of oxytocin, which stops the contracts as well. The hypothalamus stimulates the release of hormones by the pituitary gland.
