    Help! It burns!
    I used hair removal cream today on my bikini area, I usually just remove all the hair from there and am very careful not to get it inside. Today I wasn't so careful and afterwards, when it was all washed off and I was passing urine, it burnt!

    Have I done some kind of permanent damage? I always use the same brand and I'm pregnant, could I have developed a reaction?

    No permanent damage... but you did really irritate the skin and technically did a light chemical burn. That's really sensitive skin and it only takes a few moments too long for that to happen.

    Just wear soft cotton undies for a few days (and avoid tight fitting clothes) and that should go away.
