Question

I am a breastfeeding mother and i want to know if it is safe to use PEG-hGHra? Is PEG-hGHra safe for nursing mother and child? Does PEG-hGHra extracts into breast milk? Does PEG-hGHra has any long term or short term side effects on infants? Can PEG-hGHra influence milk supply or can PEG-hGHra decrease milk supply in lactating mothers?

Answer by DrLact: About PEG-hGHra usage in lactation

Limited data indicate that PEG-hGHra is poorly excreted into breastmilk. Because PEG-hGHra is not orally absorbed, it is unlikely to adversely affect the breastfed infant.
