  • Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Injections

    Is follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) injections safe while nursing? I am nursing an 11 month old who is still nursing quite frequently even though he does eat solids also. If it is safe, what is the half life so I can time nursing? Thank you!

    KoBert,

    Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) is rated an L3-no data-probably compatible. FSH is a large molecular weight protein. Found in normal menstruating women, it is unlikely to enter milk due to its large molecular weight.
