Not recommended : Cyproterone Acetate + Ethinylestradiol (ALTHEA) is not recommended for pregnant women. Breastfeeding mothers should not take Cyproterone Acetate + Ethinylestradiol (ALTHEA). This can reduce the volume of breast milk. Breastfeeding women can use progestin-only pills. Talk to your Dr for an alternative prescription.
