A member asked:
I stopped taking accutane 9/4, had a blood test on 9/13 to check levels. it will take 2-8 days from today to get results and i ovulate within 2-4days. is it safe to conceive after being off 2+ weeks?

No!: You should wait at least 6 months off Accutane before considering getting pregnant. It stays in your system for at least 3 months. Please follow up with your doctor for further discussion.
