Pimples ointment during breastfeeding
Hi Sir / Mam,
I am a new mom for 1 month old baby. Suddenly I am getting more pimples and it few caused black spots also. As I am having a new born baby I couldn't visit dermatologist in person.
Previously I got few pimples before my pregnancy that time my dermatologist suggested to use "Retino a 0.025" . Could you please let me know it can be used during breastfeeding?
Or please suggest me any ointments for acne which is safe during breastfeeding
Thanks in advance

Retinoid creams to be avoided since yu are feeding the baby mam.. Just an acne cream alone wont be sufficient and need to access the acne which u have.
