Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention relates to an oxytocin release stimulation device (10') that can be arranged at or close to skin of a user (40). The oxytocin release stimulation device (10') comprises a lighting unit (14') and a control unit (16"). The control unit (16") controls the lighting unit (14') such that the lighting unit (14') provides light with specific wavelengths and radiant exposures to the skin of the user (40) for a duration that ensures stimulation of a release of oxytocin. Release of oxytocin allows to stimulate a milk ejection reflex and thus to support milk extraction, e.g. when the oxytocin release stimulation device (10') is used with a breast pump (100'). The oxytocin release stimulation device (10') can furthermore allow to reach an oxytocin level during pregnancy that allows to reduce the risk of postpartum depression or that allows to facilitate induction of labor.
