Acne Problems
Hello,
I am facing acne breakout issues mostly on jawline and cheeks. I am not sure but I believe this would be because of Ovulation Induction tat I m taking as m planning for pregnancy.
Can anyone please suggest the OTC anti acne cream to be used. Is it safe to use Retinol ? If so, which retinol cream I can buy to treat acne and acne marks.
Also pls let me know if there are any home remedies to prevent or treat dis.
Thank you so much.
Regards,
Apurva
