It is a progestogen structurally related to progesterone that is used in the treatment of menstrual disorders (secondary amenorrhea, dysfunctional bleeding). oral administration. High doses are used in the treatment of endometrial carcinoma, prostatic hyperplasia, and breast disorders, including carcinoma. (Martindale, DrugBank)
Since the last update we have not found published data on its excretion in breastmilk.
Its very high percentage of protein binding make it highly unlikely that significant quantities will pass into breast milk.
Other progestogens are excreted in breast milk in clinically insignificant amounts and no problems have been observed in infants whose mothers were taking them; they are considered compatible with breastfeeding..
Until more published data is known about this drug in relation to breastfeeding, known safer alternatives are preferable, especially during the neonatal period and in the event of prematurity.
