A trans woman who tried 'chestfeeding' had to give up after a fortnight, according to a case report that challenges claims biological men can breastfeed successfully.
The unidentified 37-year-old, from the Netherlands, failed to produce enough liquid to feed her newborn. She was only making 7ml a day, 100 time less than what the NHS says is needed by that point.
Medics in Amsterdam, who treated her, documented how she wanted to breastfeed in tandem with her partner to help with 'bonding' and share the workload.
The trans woman – who froze her sperm before transitioning – conceived her child with her partner, a biological female, via IVF in 2020 using her own sperm.
Despite months of preparation, she had to stop the 'exhausting' process two weeks after her child was born due to the low amount of milk produced.
But the researchers still said 'chestfeeding' – a controversial gender-neutral term for breastfeeding – was still 'valuable' for their patient. Sharing the trans woman's case, they also said breastfeeding has 'outgrown' its traditional female roots.
Trans women breastfeeding is a controversial topic.
Last month an NHS trust was forced to defend itself after stating 'human milk' from trans women is as good for babies as that produced by biological women.
And last year a British trans woman sparked outrage after sharing a photo of her breastfeeding her child on a bus.
Induced lactation in trans women is not only controversial in itself.

As the song says: “Ain’t Nothing Like the Real Thing, Baby.”
These men are taking estrogen and progesterone and other female hormones to make themselves lactate.
I can’t wait to see what the long term effect of that will be on their bodies.

Case Report: Induced Lactation in a Transgender Woman
Note the info on spirolactone...
...Our patient continued to take spironolactone while breastfeeding for androgen blockade. A known metabolite of spironolactone, cancrenone is excreted in human milk. This has been shown to be 0.2% of the maternal daily dose, which is thought to be clinically insignificant.16 Spironolactone has been reported to have tumorigenic potential in rats, but according to the American Academy of Pediatrics, it is thought to be compatible with breastfeeding.17...
