I attached two publications that discuss dehydration and the following production of oxytocin.I'd have to look more into oxytocin and the underlying mechanism of why a dry fast would raise oxytocin levels.
Indeed, I believe that oxytocin has been considered as a female hormone at first, but it seems to have a lot of different roles in the body (see e.g., the connexion with autism, the cardiovascular system, cancer, etc.).
After reading Cirion's post, I agree with him that fasting (not particularly dry) has the ability to drop blood pressure in itself.
