Hi

i asked my nurse about this on one of my cycles cos i felt so fat, spotty and bruised i thought a tan might help improve my appearance and mood! she said it's fine to apply fake tan.

I'm glad someone finaly answered this question, I have been wanting to know this myself. Our frist cycle failed this month, and it will be a couple of months before we try again. But I'm glad to know I can use it, I'm one of those very blonde haired blue eyed girls who can not tan. Those who can make me sick! :x I burn like a piece of bacon on a skillet. Those injections bruise you up and all those exzams... :? You know what I mean girls, your on a table nothing on from the waist down and you are freezing! Well if you are a fair skinned gal that means you turn purple, that is so embarrassing. Yes I'm vain I admit it, but I have also had enough sun burns in my life to know I don't tan and never will. Mine come in a bottle and always have, you have to buy the pricy ones though or you will streak and turn orange :shock: That's a nice look...Last year before I had to start any meds or anything I had an apt. I had just used a bronzer, because you can tell where you have rubed it in. Anyway apparently I did not wait long enough for it to dry when I got dressed for my apt. When I got there I disrobed hoped on the table, and had my ultrasound, I noticed I felt like I was sticking to the paper on the table :oops: When the nurse left and I was getting dressed, the bronzer had rubed off of me and all over the paper on the bed :roll: I looked like I had some sort of crud! Moral of the story, wait till your self tanner dries before you get dressed, especialy if you have a doctors apt! :wink: Happy tanning!
