aknenormin without the pill?

Hi, I've had severe acne since I went on vacation in October. My hormone levels have changed drastically (I don't know why?), and my periods have been irregular since then. All the gynecologists in my area aren't accepting new patients, and I wouldn't get an appointment until October next year at the earliest.

My acne is really bad and I hardly dare go to school with it anymore because everyone there calls me a "pimple face" and "disgusting". I once heard that you have to take the pill to have acne treatment (I thought it was because of the additional hormones) but after a bit more research it turned out that you should have either the pill or the coil for contraception.

In my case, I'm only 14, so I'm not involved in all that sexual intercourse stuff, etc. Can I undergo acne treatment without taking the pill?

(I honestly can't stand it anymore, because of this acne I have also slipped into my (diagnosed) depression several times)

Hi.

you are still saying that you want nothing to do with the “gray sexual intercourse” but that can change more or less quickly.

Isotretionin, the active ingredient of acnenormine, is teratogenic and can cause damage to the unborn organism. Therefore, taking a contraceptive in women is compulsory as co-mediation. Young men are also recommended to use a condom when taking this medicine.
