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.

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.


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.

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.

How many mEq in a mmolL in lactate?

To convert millimoles per liter (mmol/L) of lactate to milliequivalents per liter (mEq/L), you need to consider the charge of the lactate ion. Lactate (C3H5O3^-) has one negative charge, so 1 mmol/L of lactate is equivalent to 1 mEq/L. Therefore, the conversion is straightforward: 1 mmol/L of lactate equals 1 mEq/L of lactate.


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.
