"Though the mammary glands of human males cannot produce milk automatically under natural conditions, with appropriate hormonal stimulus---mimicking that which human females produce naturally when they become pregnant and give birth---they can"
In summary, yes, it is possible, but not under normal natural circumstances.

However, this is only or humans, several other males of mammalian species, can lactate, such as several bat species and goats.
What else can I help you with?
Can lactate be utilized as an energy source in the body?
Yes, lactate can be utilized as an energy source in the body through a process called lactate metabolism, where it is converted into energy in the form of ATP.
What does lactate mean in a cerebrospinal analysis?
Lactate in cerebrospinal fluid analysis can indicate a variety of conditions, such as bacterial meningitis, brain tissue injury, or metabolic disorders. Elevated levels of lactate can suggest a disruption in normal cellular metabolism or oxygen supply, which can be valuable for diagnosing different neurological conditions.
What is the relation between lactate threshold and ventilatory threshold?
They both are reached are approx the same time, it is thought to be that the large change (drop) in blood pH when the lactate threshold is reached is causes ventilation to increase rapidly to try and counteract this blood pH change. The lactate threshold itself is just the point at which lactate removal can no longer keep up with lactate production.
The production and release of lactate to provide energy to the neurons is a function of the?
astrocytes in the brain. Astrocytes take up glucose and convert it to lactate, which is then released and used as an energy source by neurons. This process is known as the astrocyte-neuron lactate shuttle.
Do cows lactate all the time, or is there a specific period when they produce milk?
Cows do not lactate all the time. They typically lactate after giving birth to a calf and continue to produce milk for about 10 months to 12 months, until they are ready to give birth again.
Do mens nippels lactate?
Men's nipples can lactate, but not under normal circumstances. This is often associated with the use of human growth hormone and can even be an indicator of cancer.
Can shemale lactate?
Any mammal can lactate with the right amount of hormones and development. So in short answer to your question, yes, it is quite possible for shemales (men) to lactate if given the correct dose or estrogen, progestin, and/or estradiol for an extended period of time and then given the hormone Prolactin and oxytosin. Even you could lactate if given this hormone regiment. This is not to say ALL shameles can lactate because many breast implants will destroy the milk ducts.
What does lactate cause?
Lactate threshold is caused when lactate production exceeds lactate clearance during exercise or increasing intensity.
How is it possible for a man to pass the ability to lactate to his daughters?
it might not be the dominant gene but men still have certain genes. plus, don't forget women will have this gene also and so this is where the daughter gains the ability to lactate.
What is the name enzymes that catalyzes the formation of lactate during lactate fermentation?
lactate dehydrogenase
Is it possible for a man to lactate?
Yes, a man can lactate for many different reasons. There are tumours that can form on the pituitary gland which increase secretion of the hormone that induces lactation. There is even simple nipple stimulation which has been known to make males lactate. There are also several types of medication which can cause increase of breast tissue and lactation in men as side effects.
Is sodium lactate the conjugate base of lactic acid?
Yes, sodium lactate is the conjugate base of lactic acid. When lactic acid (a weak acid) donates a proton (H⁺), it forms lactate, which is the conjugate base. Sodium lactate is the sodium salt of lactate, meaning it contains the lactate ion paired with sodium. Thus, it can act as a source of lactate in solution.
Which of the following are true about lactate dehydrogenase?
Correct answer: I, II, III and IV
Do men?
Very rarely, men have been known to lactate. It's highly unlikely that you'll be able to, unless you began as an anatomical woman, and improbable, even then, if you're not the birth parent.
Do men nurse?
Very rarely, men have been known to lactate. It's highly unlikely that you'll be able to, unless you began as an anatomical woman, and improbable, even then, if you're not the birth parent.
Is L-lactate a chiral molecule?
Yes, L-lactate is a chiral molecule as it has a stereocenter at the carbon atom bound to the carboxyl group. It exists in two enantiomeric forms, L-lactate and D-lactate, which are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.
Do cows have to mate in order to lactate?
Not quite; they have to give birth to a calf in order to lactate.
