Hi-

I've had laser and electrolisis treatment with no avail. Supposedly the technology has improved so I'm trying laser again. Had my first treatment yesterday.

Is there anyone who has tried laser without having normal hormone levels and had SUCCESS with it?

i too did both...and when doing laser..the tech asked me if i had a hormone problem. i had no idea what she was talking about because i would think my gyno would've teseted me for that. WRONG!! my gyno was an idiot and i changed docs...she tested me right and i do have a hormone problem. the tech told me that it was pretty much pointless to treat the hair if there was an underlying hormone problem cause you will create more hair as time goes on. all those hairs treated will die, but since you're not really taking care of the cause of hair...you will keep getting new hair in. now i'm doing electrolysis and taking meds to keep my hormones in check. hope this helps ya! and good luck w/ the laser.
