Laser hair removal takes several months because our hair grows in different cycles. The treatment only works on hair in its active growth phase. Since your hairs aren't all growing at the same time, we need multiple sessions spaced weeks apart to target them all. As for your second question?yes, you can absolutely get treatments during your period! Just keep in mind that your skin might be a little more sensitive to discomfort during this time due to hormonal changes. Please don't hesitate to let your provider know so they can keep you as comfortable as possible.

Yes, there is still a very small chance of pregnancy, as no emergency contraceptive is 100% effective. However, because you took the i-pill (Unwanted 72), which contains levonorgestrel, on the same day as the unprotected sex, its effectiveness is very high. It works primarily by preventing or delaying ovulation. For your peace of mind, I suggest taking a home pregnancy test if your next period is delayed by more than a week, or in about three weeks.

While Unwanted 72 (levonorgestrel) can cause mild nausea or vomiting shortly after taking it, experiencing vomiting, feeling cold, and nasal congestion five days later is unlikely to be a direct side effect of the pill. Instead, these symptoms point toward a common viral infection, like a cold or stomach flu. Please rest, stay well-hydrated, and eat bland foods. If your vomiting continues, or if you develop a high fever, it is best to consult a healthcare professional for a quick checkup.

Taking the emergency contraceptive pill Unwanted 72 (levonorgestrel) so quickly makes it highly effective, significantly reducing your pregnancy risk, even during your ovulation window. Your next period should arrive around its usual time, though the hormones may cause it to be a few days early or up to a week late. If your period is delayed by more than seven days, taking a home pregnancy test is recommended.

Mintop Pro (which contains hair-nourishing peptides rather than minoxidil) and Alotin (a biotin supplement) carry a significantly lower risk of causing facial hair growth compared to topical minoxidil 5%. Minoxidil is a potent stimulant that can trigger facial hair growth if it accidentally spreads to the face. The gentle ingredients in Mintop Pro and the nutritional support from Alotin work differently and are very unlikely to cause this side effect. You can consult your doctor for your hair recovery.

To take the standard emergency contraceptive pill containing levonorgestrel, swallow the single tablet with water as soon as possible after unprotected sex. It is most effective when taken within 72 hours (3 days). A highly effective alternative is ulipristal acetate, which can be taken up to 120 hours (5 days) after intercourse. For both pills, the sooner they are taken, the more effective they are. These medications are safe and prevent pregnancy by delaying ovulation. If you happen to vomit within three hours of taking the pill, please speak with a doctor, as you may need a replacement dose.
