This is FSH, which is follicle stimulating hormone.  It has a very large molecular weight,
(34000), which makes it extremely unlikely to be present in the milk.  It would also be unstable
in acid in the baby's stomach and thus, even if some did get into the milk, the child would not
be affected.

This molecule is unlikely to affect milk supply.
