Prolactin vs. Oxytocin?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
In terms of? I'm assuming you mean in terms of milk production/breastfeeding, because that's the only place I can see confusion about their roles occurring.

Prolactin stimulates milk production and breast development, while oxytocin stimulates 'milk letdown', which is basically just actually getting the milk out.
