Hi lybrate-user, your face has darkened because one of the side effects of isotretinoin is it makes your skin more sensitive to sunlight. While starting anyone on isotretinoin, it is imperative to avoid sun exposure and wear sunscreen at all times.

Good evening lybrate-user. I will begin straight with the answer, yes, isotretinoin can cause irregularities in your menstrual cycles. It would be advisable to stop it for the time being. You are also breastfeeding your baby so I would recommend you to stop acutret for now. Also, re consult your dermatologist as well as your gynaecologist. There may be many different reasons for your cycle irregularities including stress, lack of sleep or proper diet in addition to other factors.
