Good evening,
I'm 34 yo and recently been treated in left eye for CRVO with Avastin injection. My retinal specialist recommended that I stop breastfeeding immediately and to not resume until 3-4 weeks following each treatment due to the lack of data with its use and bf. This treatment would last 7-8months and potentially longer, I don't think it is conducive to feed 1 week or of a month for that long nor would I be able to keep up supply. My PCP recommended to pump and dump for first week and then resume bf.
Infant is only 3.5 months old we would love to continue ebf but very concern and unsure how you proceed. Please help, Thank you so so much in advance!
