Question

I'm living in Bangalore and I'm noticing that after I take a bath, my facial skin feels really dry and it even starts cracking, it's happening with my legs too. I tried using Pond's cold cream, but it just makes my skin oily and doesn't really help. I've been considering trying extra virgin olive oil. Do you have any suggestions or can you recommend something else that might work?

Question

I'm 28 and suddenly dealing with acne, which is totally new to me. My dermatologist put me on Isotretinoin 20 mg, but now I'm worried. They warned me about not getting pregnant during treatment and mentioned something about contraception, but I'm more concerned about what happens after. Is it safe to try for a baby 6 months later? Could there be any impact on my fertility or sexual health? Would really appreciate some clarity on this.
