Is it allowed to take Leuprolide Acetate during lactation?
Is it safe for a nursing mother and a child?

Gonadotropin releasing hormone analogue. It is not secreted into breast milk because of a large molecular weight. It is readily destroyed by the child’s stomach acid milieu. Follow-up breast milk production. Keep in mind that there is a known anovulatory effect of lactation that is related to sucking frequency.

I am a 75 year old male. I have had good results with these shots. I have had 3 shots so far and they have brought my PSA down from 5.7 to .20. I have a slight breast enlargements, but other than that, no side effects. I am very satisfied with the treatments. They are administered in the doctors office.
