I am also trying to conceive and my doctor told me to be careful with strong smelling creams. Maybe you can check with your gynac once, just to be completely safe and stress-free.
Listen, it's better to avoid these chemical creams during these months. Just stick to normal waxing or shaving, why take unnecessary risks with strong chemicals? Simple is always best.
Omg I used it once in my first trimester and panicked so badly after reading online! But my doctor laughed and said it's fine, though shaving is safer because the skin gets very sensitive. Don't worry, nothing will happen!
With gestational diabetes, my skin was already behaving weirdly and itching. I completely avoided chemical creams and stuck to normal shaving to prevent any infections or reactions. It is always better to be a bit cautious.
Hey! Yes, but our skin becomes super sensitive now 🙈. I switched to shaving just to avoid any burning or rashes. Try doing a small patch test if you really want to use it!
Actually, there is no solid research showing it harms the baby, but the chemicals get absorbed slightly through skin. My doctor suggested avoiding them in the first trimester. Waxing or shaving is much safer according to most gynacs.
