Medication : sotret
My gf has a mild acne problem and the doc has recommended her sotret 20 mg. Her friend has told her that this medicine plays with the hormones and there is a fair chance of problems with periods. The doc has also told her that atleast for 1 year she can't be involved in physical intimacy and we are planning for the marriage in 6 months.. Should she take the medication?
