Anyone else getting laser hair removal while TTC?

Question

My Dr said continuing my laser hair removal treatments while TTC was fine, but that she would want me to stop once pregnant. Do you think having it done during the TWW would still be safe?

Answer

Im a master esthetician...we advise pregnant women to wait because the skin can react adversely while pregnant. Studies have not shown direct risk to a growing fetus, but they haven't excluded it either. Also, pregancy hormones affect hair growth...so it may be best to wait until after you give birth for better results. As far as electrolysis, it is not recommended because the baby is surrounded by amniotic fluid. In this situation, amniotic fluid acts as a conductor of electricity.

Answer

I am and I don't think there's an issue with it. They also told me it was fine once I did convince although I probably wouldn't if I was pregnant.
