dopamine levels

Great info-graphic comparing dopamine levels of drugs, sex and porn

Just found this graphic. It's great because this is what I imagine might happen during a porn session where you edge (use porn without climaxing) for a while. Note that all the other graphs are taken from rat research, where a probe was inserted into the nucleus accumbens of the reward circuitry. Please know that no one has measured dopamine levels in human brains during sex or porn viewing.
