Hi - I'm waiting for my second pregnancy test to get accutane (I have to wait another month!), and I just saw your post. I'm 26, and I also have acne that is much much better than it was in the past (I've had acne since I was 9 years old). I feel the same way as you - finally ready to take the risk but concerned that it would have been more effective when I was 17! Everyone says it's only effective if your acne is severe, but if mine was more severe, then surely it won't be less effective now; my chemistry is the same! Plus, I have a friend with the mildest acne you've ever seen and she took it, and it cleared her up; this keeps me feeling positive. In fact, what made up my mind was the sixth real-life testimonial I got, all of which were so enthusiastic I just couldn't live another day without finding out if it could work for me.
I'm interested to hear how your treatment goes! I'll keep an eye out for your posts. |
