What are my hair loss options for Androgenetic Alopecia during pregnancy?

echo338
I was diagnosed with Androgenetic Alopecia a couple of weeks ago. I started Rogaine 5%, Spironolactone 100mg/day, Nutrafol, and have appointments for PRP + Acell. I plan on getting pregnant in about a year. Are there any hair loss options during pregnancy? I have heard the laser cap is a possibility. Is it possible due to hormonal surges during pregnancy stopping treatment may potentially not have a huge affect while pregnant and I can immediately start treatment again after giving birth?
