A member asked:
If trying to conceive & may be pregnant but 2 early to know - is it safe to use nair hair removal lotion on my arms? thanks!
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Most of my: colleagues say NAIR is safe during pregnancy. I come from a different angle. If it is left on too long, used in an inappropriate area or if your skin is sensitive, it could lead to rash, sometimes blistering. Avoid breathing in fumes. My general philosophy is not use any unnecessary chemicals/ substances during pregnancy. Some may consider this to be a cautious view.
