Amanda Lemos was suspended for two years by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) on March 28, 2018, as a result of a test that revealed stanozolol and its metabolite, which came from a sample that was taken on November 8, 2017. She was scheduled to make her comeback from suspension against Veronica Macedo in a strawweight bout at UFC Fight Night: Edgar vs. The Korean Zombie on December 21, 2019. After Macedo withdrew, Miranda Granger took her place. Through technical submission, Lemos was able to overcome Granger in the bout.
