Gel nails while TTC?

Bit of a random post! Please don’t judge. First tim trying for a baby and didn’t even worry about this until my app popped up

I have the app ‘Flo’ which mentioned there’s an ingredient in polishes (didn’t clarify if it was nail polishes or gel) that can be harmful to fertility/while trying (their words not mine)

Of course rationally in my head I know plenty of women who paint their nails constantly or get gel manicures constantly and have healthy children

But just wanted to ask did anyone else still get their gel nails and was it okay? I tend to get my nails done every 2-3 weeks. Will this be okay or will it get in the way of us conceiving?

Flo can be helpful sometimes but today just caused a bunch of worry lol!
