Best example of positive feedback is the release of oxytocin during childbirth. Oxytocin is a reproductive hormone in females. Though it is also secreted in males, its function is yet unclear. Secretion of oxytocin occurs in response to nervous stimulation of the hypothalamus. It stimulates and enhances labor contractions.
Another example of a biological positive feedback loop is the process of blood clotting. The loop is initiated when injured tissue releases signal chemicals which activate platelets in the blood. An activated platelet releases chemicals which activate more platelets, causing a rapid cascade and the formation of a blood clot. In most cases, once the purpose of the feedback loop is completed, counter-signals are released which suppress or break the loop.
