Dear Dr Hale and colleagues,
I am trying to find current information about the safety of using a combined pill containing 0.035mg Ethinylestradiol and 2mg Cyproterone acetate once per day by a nursing mother. Breastfeeding is well established (the baby is already 5 months old) and the mother has been prescribed this medication for alopecia, together with topical minoxidil which is supposed to be safe.
Thank you in advance for your help.
