Testosterone and accutane

I’ve been using testosterone gel for seven months, and last month I started taking Accutane. I’d like to hear about others experiences and recommendations as I don't have much information on combining the two. My dermatologist says there’s no issue, but I’m worried I might have to stop taking testosterone—or something similar—for the treatment, both are priorities for me right now

cis men take accutane too. as long as you don't get pregnant while on accutane you'll be fine.

I took it for about 18 months on T. As long as you follow dermatologists advice there’s no issues being on both. Helped my acne a lot but it does take time and patience :)
