My doctor asked me was I on birth control Or use condoms and I told her no..
She then asked me was I trying to get pregnant and I said no..

FDA Pregnancy Category
Tretinoin is classified as Category C/D (depending on the formulation).
This means animal studies show adverse effects on the fetus, but there are insufficient human studies. Retinol also falls under the same cautionary umbrella.
Retinoids have been linked to a range of potential side effects in pregnancy, including:
Congenital defects: Oral retinoids can cause heart defects, craniofacial deformities, and more.
Tretinoin and retinol belong to the retinoid family. Retinoids, when taken orally (e.g., isotretinoin for severe acne), are well-known teratogens, meaning they can cause birth defects. While topical retinoids are less absorbed, the risk isn't fully zero.
