I am 24 year aged male, i was on isotretinoin for 6 months ( by consultation of a qualified dermatologist) for 20mg/day. My last dose of isotretinoin was may 2021. I have been getting erectile problems since July 2021. Can there be any possibility of isotretinoin causing my erectile problems??

Although isotretinoin, a drug used to treat severe acne but it has various side effects ranging from sexual effects. Erectile problems can arise due to various reasons, though there have been cases where isotretinoin has impacted sexual function; still everyone reacts differently. There is a possibility of the connection due to your symptoms starting after stopping use for few months ago. But only a health care professional can ascertain whether isotretinoin may be potentially involved and should also look into other possible reasons why you have erectile problems.
