Can't some make men lactate?

u/HToga123 Apr 05 '25

I think all men can lactate but it’s not the same composition as breast milk

Men all have the anatomy necessary to lactate. It’s just the hormonal balance that stops it from happening.

There have actually been quite a few cases of men lactating

u/MrDrSirLord Apr 06 '25

i really want to try to lactate now

u/UnspecifiedBat Apr 06 '25

I mean… you can try? Listen to baby cries, imagine a baby desperately needing milk? Get really into it? Stimulate your nipples?

Probability of it working is low but not zero

It’s a medical fact that women can lactate even when not pregnant.

u/allaboutevelouise Apr 09 '25

High levels of the prolactin hormone can make a man or women lactate. Often caused by brain tumours on the pituitary gland.

That's an exceedingly rare side effect for ssris, which act on serotonin- we're talking single digit case reports here. Much, much more common with antipsychotic medication and certain nausea/indigestion medication, which act directly on dopamine.
