acne and pregnancy
I know we can't use retin-a, antibiotics and other Rx treatments, but what about the over the counter stuff? What if you use a wash with 2.5% salicylic acid? Is that ok? My dr. didn't say anything about it.
TIA!

I heard forma friend that asked her Dr. that her Dr. was not against salicylic acid.
I still use my clinique acne skin care regiment.

Re: acne and pregnancy
I stopped all acne medications and was worried about my acne prone skin. I must say my skin has never been better in my entire life. I should get myself knocked up more often!!!

Re: acne and pregnancy
The wash that I use has 2% salicyclic acid in it. My doctor never said anything about it. I just don't use anything with vitamin A at all.
