Iasmin Lucindo has received a second suspension for her recent failed drug test – but it coincides perfectly with the first.
On Wednesday, the Nevada Athletic Commission (NAC) voted to suspend Lucindo (18-6 MMA, 5-2 UFC) for nine months. That’s the same exact duration that the UFC suspended her for following an investigation into a positive test Sept. 24. They also fined her $250 to cover attorney fees.

Lucindo, 24, tested positive for mesterolone, an anabolic steroid that is primarily used to treat low testosterone and male infertility, from an out-of-competition sample collected in Brazil. As a result, Lucindo was pulled from her scheduled Dec. 13 fight against Gillian Robertson at UFC on ESPN 73.
Lucindo’s nine-month suspension is and will conclude June 24.
According to CSAD, Lucindo cooperated with its investigation, which found that she did not intentionally use mesterolone to gain a performance advantage and that her low-level adverse finding resulted from a contaminated supplement. Lucindo provided documentation from a Brazilian pharmacy she frequented that indicated it regularly compounded products containing mesterolone, including in potential legal dietary supplements that Lucindo used.
Lucindo last competed Aug. 9, 2025, winning a unanimous decision against veteran Angela Hill. It was the fifth win in her past six UFC appearances, with her only loss to Amanda Lemos.
