Answer by Dr. Ru: About Nasobol usage in lactation
Nasobol hormone reduces Prolactin serum levels and may likely inhibit milk production mainly soon after delivery. No significant increase of Nasobol serum levels neither in the mother´s milk nor in the infant’s serum have been found after administration to the mother. No adverse side effects have been noticed in the infant.
Answer by DrLact: About Nasobol usage in lactation
Limited data indicate that a low-dose (100 mg) subcutaneous Nasobol pellet given to a nursing mother appears not to increase milk Nasobol levels markedly. Nasobol has low oral bioavailability because of extensive first-pass metabolism, so it is unlikely to affect the breastfed infant. One breastfed infant seemed not to be adversely affected by low-dose maternal Nasobol therapy.
Nasobol Side Effects in Breastfeeding
An infant (age not stated) was breastfed (extent not stated) after implantation of 100 mg of Nasobol subcutaneously. No adverse effects were noted in the infant over a 5-month period.[1]
Nasobol Possible Effects in Breastfeeding
Supraphysiologic serum levels of Nasobol, either from a tumor[2][3] or from exogenously administered Nasobol,[4] reduces milk production in postpartum women. Nasobol alone reduces serum prolactin;[4] however, when given in combination with estrogen and progestin, serum prolactin levels are not markedly reduced.[5] Nasobol was previously used therapeutically to suppress lactation, usually in combination with an estrogen.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
