Using Proactiv while PG?

My skin broke out recently and I saw a commerical for Proactiv and it sounds like it could do the job. Several friends are on it and and say its great. Have any of you used it while being PG?

I wouldn't use any products without a doctor's consent while pregnant. My skin also broke out so I went to my dermatologist and he put me on a regiment that was safe for the baby.

Re: Using Proactiv while PG?

I just looked this up on the Proactiv site:

Is Proactiv Solution safe to use while pregnant?
We recommend that you consult your physician before using any medication during pregnancy.

So definitely ask your doctor. My doc advised me to just leave my zits alone and use a hot compress Chat Icon but she's conservative...
