Hello Ms. lybrate-user.
I understand your concern very well. As you are not planning to conceive anywhere in the near future you can take isotretinoin for your acne. It's always best to follow up with a dermatologist and monitor your progress.

You can. However treatment depends on the grade. Acne or pimples. Due to hormonal changes. Oily skin causes it. Common in adolescent age. May occur in adults also. Food like oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne. So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
