A member asked:

It : It is unlikely that it will cause you to miscarry as the baby is quite protected in early pregnancy, but if you are indeed pregnant it would not be advised to continue, as the safety of tanning beds is not established during pregnancy. In the first 9-10 weeks of pregnancy the baby is quite protected under the pubic bone, so you don't need to be overly concerned if you had been in the tanning bed earlier.
