Is it safe to use hair removal cream in pregnancy?

Question

I usually use hair removal creams, but now that I'm pregnant, I'm worried about chemicals. Is it safe to continue using hair removal creams, like Veet or others, while I'm expecting?

Since my IVF journey was so delicate, I avoided all chemical creams and just used a razor or got normal waxing. Better to be extra careful, but please ask your doctor once to be completely sure.

Honestly even I was thinking about this because my stomach is growing and waxing is getting so tough. Is it really safe or do the chemicals seep in? Has anyone actually used it?

I am a bit shy to ask my doc about these things but my MIL said natural methods are always better. Maybe you can try simple shaving instead?

Arre chemicals have strong smells, why to take risk? Just use a clean razor or go for normal waxing at home, it's much safer and easier.

Why spend so much on expensive chemical creams or parlor trips when we have so many medical bills and delivery charges coming up? A simple razor is so cheap and works perfectly fine.
