Tretin 0.05%

2022-07-10 04:31:07
In 2020, I had developed some kind acne on my face, for which my doctor had suggested me Tretin 0.05% topical cream. Now, again in 2022, I had the same type of acne on my face. I'm planning to use it on my face, but just wanted to know if it's safe to use during pregnancy. I'm 18weeks pregnant now. Since, I stay overseas, it's hard to connect with my doctor. Google suggests tretoin use can lead to birth defects. Could you please advise me? Highly appreciate!
