Pupil dilation during sex

Is it normal to experience extreme pupil dilation while having sex. I mean the brown ring in my eyes got less than 1mm in thickness while I banged someone.
And I wasn't on any drugs and it wasn't dark or anything (but it did feel like drugs).
So is this a thing or what?

Normally I don't notice the size of my pupils at all when I'm having sex. Were you looking into a mirror or something?

No I was asked whether I'm on acid or MDMA and I wasn't (but it felt better than MDMA).

I think sexual arousal is normally associated with some degree of pupil dilation, but I'm not sure how much.

Your pupils actually dialated when you see someone you are attracted to so yes this is normal.

I'm not sure of the mechanics of it, but I guess that info is out there. Supposedly women used to put belladonna eyedrops into their eyes to make their eyes dilate, which is why the name means "beautiful woman."

Are you seriously more interested in the size of your pupil's during sex than the sex during sex

At first I thought that. But then i was thinking maybe the partner noticed it or they where in front of a mirror. But yeah it happens. Heck when I'm really in a good mood and just vibing out people would ask me what I'm on because my pupils get big, and I'd just say life.

I can accommodate more than two interests in the same timeframe. I also think about my car insurance, buying the cat some food, world peace and the origins of time and space.
And somehow you automatically assumed I was more interested in my ocular physiology than the act of making love. Your deduction skills are astonishing

Oxytocin, also called the "bonding hormone" is released in huge quantities during orgasm and sexual arousal.
it directly causes mydriasis, or pupil dilation

Oxytocin is also heavily released during cuddling.

i heard they were designing a nasal spray containing oxytocin.
I have this hilarious visual of lonely obese people hopelessly addicted to the stuff, stuffing their face with cheetos and snorting oxytocin to feel like they have some kind of human connection
