No this is NOT OxyContin oxytocin is a naturally occurring hormone also known as the bonding hormone. While it is present in both men and women it is longer lasting in women. Oxytocin is released upon orgasm, giving birth, breast feeding etcetera. In men the effects last anywhere from three hours to a week, where as women likely experience the effects from three days on up to three weeks. The Mistress Matchmaker series is almost a study on this, how Lysandra in the first book basically fell for  her Trainer after the first time they had sex. Then Mariah, a more seasoned mistress had had only three different protectors over several years. Lastly was Vivian Manning, Vivian was different in that she denied her body's reaction to the hormone and was able for long periods to distance herself emotionally. Now my favorite (and perhaps the most appropriate quote for summing up this series) "because you are a gentleman and I am most definitely not a lady"
