[quote SunnydaleClassProtector99]@Helleofabore are you talking about domperidone? I'm a bit worried because I used that to induce breast milk when I had low flow and was pumping . I thought I was doing the right thing for baby but now I'm worried. Do you have any studies you can direct me to?[/quote]
Sunnydale, I am talking about males suppressing their testosterone with one chemical (which is apparently has various effectiveness at that suppression) combined with whatever other hormonal cocktail they are on for transition.
I am not talking about a female body with natural hormones (or at least with significantly less artificial hormones being introduced) at all. Particularly if you are simply supplementing existing processes.
I am very sorry that my post was unclear. I can see that it could be read that way. My sincere apologies.
That was what the comment on the reddit thread was referring to when they said 'including trans lesbians'. ie. males. For a male to lactate to feed an infant, requires significant interference with hormones etc. A transwoman doctor who was a specialist in the field made the decision NOT to do this for their child when their wife had their baby as they realised that so much was at risk due to the unknowns.
And of course, there is also the fact that a women's body after pregnancy regulates the contents of the milk. That also does not happen with male lactation as they simply do not have the body systems in place for that to happen.
There needs to be a focus on what is in the infant's interest vs the adult in these cases.
