While there is not current scientific
evidence that expectant mothers cannot tan, this is something
that needs to be discussed with your physician beforehand. There
are some researchers that believe that the increased production
of vitamin D that is produced by exposure to UVB may be beneficial
to both the mother and the fetus. But you must also consider
the possibility of increased body temperature, which does occur
when tanning indoors, just as it does when taking a bath or
using a Jacuzzi. Please make sure to discuss this thoroughly
with your doctor prior to tanning, because for liability reasons,
we will only allow a pregnant woman to tan with written permission
from her doctor. |
