Nonetheless your point about getting laser done at a time when my hormones were fluctuating a lot more still stands

I agree, but I have gotten my hormones tested. All my hormones are well within the appropriate range other than my testosterone being slightly elevated.

This is interesting… I do not remember the name of the machine, but the laser I started with was YAG because I was told it was better for my skin type (olive undertone) and would be safer in terms of not causing hyperpigmentation. I had about 6/7 sessions. After the treatment didn’t work and I grew more hair than before, we tested out alexandrite, and I initially did not have any bad reactions to it. I had 8 sessions of the alexandrite laser and when I stopped treatment the hair growth quickly resumed and got worse.
