Yes, I think it will be. Because if a woman is just starting contraception/changing form, they have to be on it at least a month before starting, which is why I was told come back in four weeks. There...

Day 41   My nosebleeds have slowed right down, so I'm happy about that. My hands and arms have been sorted with hydro cream, though is starting to appear again futher up the arm. Still breaking ...

Good luck with your course

For me, it was 4 weeks. Was sent away with leaflets about it, told to make appointment with the Nurse at the GP for blood test (was given blood form by the Derm), & change my contraception. In the...

How you getting on? You had your party for one yet?!

Im glad im reading this, Im taking roaccutane, the roche version of accutane, and every time i open it I swear it smells like weed. I Hope Im taking the real accutane and not a fake brand, please peop...

Your face definitely looks alot less red. About a couple of your side effects, I've gotten similar rashes on my hands/arms but as long as I moisturize before bed they go away, I'm using Redwin sorbele...

Day 36   Making progress   I currently have two small actives. I'm really happy. The two actives I spoke about on my forehead (which was actually at the top of my nose), became big, I t...

Great things are heading in the right direction for you funny you should say that about healing time, as I've noticed mine isn't slower, and if anything, is quicker. Pleased your side effects are sti...

Hi, I am new to this forum as I am currently only on day 6 of my Roaccutane prescription. I found your log because we are the same age, both based in the UK and my acne is very similar to yours! You a...

Pleased things are good with you. Is frustrating it takes so long to start seeing it working its magic, especially when we have side effects from the tablets.   Yes, all good thank you

Good luck to you

Hey, how you getting on?

Day 31   I forgot to add pictures of my skin one month in. Have taken pictures this morning so it's more up to date, and there is a difference between day 28 and day 31. Redness & tightness ...

Day 29   So, it's been a month! Has gone really quickly. My pores have returned to normal size, and I still don't have any spots on my chest. Can't remember the last time this happened. So plea...

Ah that's cool, you doing any half marathons this year? I'd love to try training again. Is definitely on the cards, but been told this morning I need to have shoulder surgery...*sob*. Well phew, I'm...

I've got my third stye since being on Roaccutane (nearly finished first month). I was prone to styes before the course, though hadn't had one in a while. Roaccutane will still be in your system at thi...

Good plan!

Because when I told the Derm I don't have a dry nose, she said that lipid levels could be the cause. I didnt question her anymore about it, so don't know the ins and outs. Oh really, that's interestin...

Don't see why not, just listen to your body & take it easy when necessary.

Hey! Hhmm, yeah, is just the nosebleeds that are troublesome, and as my nose isn't dry/sore, I've been looking into how I would lower lipid levels. Obviously the standard thing is lose weight and eat ...

^ Mine was the same as Spidermanforever.

Day 24   Had my Derm appointment today, and heard the words "you'll be pleased you're not pregnant", woo! She's keeping me on 40mg for now, as had my third nosebleed in the night and kept stopp...

Thanks for your replies. It has since died down. I initially couldn't go more than 24 hours without washing my hair as it would begin again, but now all seems to be normal again since buying Head &...

Oh really? Have you been given the whole amount then? I have to go every month for blood test and for a new prescription, as only get given a months worth at a time. Might be different for women, beca...
