4. Sex Organs:
For male: Ejaculation of semen is inhibited. For female: Variable effects according to menstruation phase.
No vasoconstriction
Orbelli phenomenon
It denotes to :
Better contraction
Delayed fatigue
Early recovery of skeletal muscle after fatigue
It may due to
Increased oxygen consumption and heat production
