Can Aknemycin Plus make it difficult to try for a child?

In an interview at the visit, I made it clear that I was trying to have a baby. The doctor prescribed aknemycin plus. I bought a prescription, and in the leaflet it says that it is forbidden to use women planning pregnancies ... can it hinder efforts or is it better not to use? Is it better to replace with aknemycin ointment?

Aknemycin Plus contains erythromycin (an antibiotic) and tretinoin (retinoid). Retinoids are not allowed during pregnancy and in women trying to have children, as they can harm the unborn child (they are teratogenic, can cause birth defects and other pathologies of the course of pregnancy). This effect applies primarily to oral drugs, where the active substance is absorbed into the blood and provokes a systemic effect. However, for safety reasons, in order to reduce all possible risks, drugs with retinoids are also contraindicated when used topically if the patient is pregnant or wants to become pregnant. These are the official guidelines of the European Medicines Agency, and manufacturers of preparations with retinoids have adapted to them by including relevant information in the leaflets of medicines. If the condition of your skin is so bad that it is necessary to include a retinoid, then - according to the above it would be appropriate to use contraception. I can not answer whether the use of Aknemycin alone would be the best solution - it should be decided by a doctor familiar with your problem. I enclose additional information about Aknemycin Plus and acne: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/tradzik https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-pozbyc-sie-tradziku-u-doroslych https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/2948/aknemycin-plus-plyn/apteki/w-warszawie WherePoLek allows you to book prescription drugs and then pick up at the pharmacy with a valid prescription.
