Acne and pregnancy

Posted By Elisa on December 28, 1998 at 00:14:54:







I have had 'acne' like bumps on my chin for the last two years and my doctor prescribed "MetroGel" which I put a small amount on each time I have a new breakout.  I recently found out that I am pregnant (6 weeks).  Can I still use this medication topically?  Or do I now have to have hideous red bumps all over my chin.  It's not 'acne', it doesn't ever get a white head- it's just an enlarged red bump beneath the skin.
Thank You.
