I know that @haidut has already mentioned several studies and a lot of information regarding the fact that oxytocin is not the "love hormone" that the medical industry has made it out to be (ie. women are told that it is the factor responsible for bonding with your newborn baby.)
In light of even more research showing the negative effects of oxytocin, specifically for women, I am wondering if anyone knows of drugs or supplements that effectively block oxytocin, as the study shows that "oxytocin blocking drugs" are effective yet they won't be available for some time until the FDA approves, yada yada yada.
Oxytocin receptors in the anteromedial bed nucleus of the stria terminalis promote stress-induced social avoidance in females
