Need advice

I was taking isotretinoin tablets before my marriage. My last dose was on 24.01.2019. My last period was on 13.03.2019 i.e. not even 2 months had elapsed. Today on 19th april I found out that I am pregnant after I missed my period. Since it is known that the isotretinoin has severe teratogenic effect the dermatologist said 2-3 months is sufficient. However On internet many are saying even 6 months is not sufficient. On others some are saying 1 month is good. What should be my further course of action? Should I abort or continue
