Tretinoin 0.25 usage before pregnancy
Hi,
I'm using tretinoin 0.25 (Retin-A) for my acne.
Please help me to understand when should I leave the application.
I will be planning for a family soon and since tretinoin is not a pregnancy safe option need to know when to stop to have a completely safe and healthy pregnancy.
