Acne caused by taking a lot of medication can lead to empty follicles?

Patient's question:

A man took a lot of medication two or three years ago to treat his acne, after which his sexual ability increased. Now his wife is pregnant with an empty gestational sac. Is it related to me?

Doctor's answer:

Even if you have taken estrogen to treat acne in the short term, it will never cause infertility issues, because the male testes also continuously excrete the necessary male hormones to maintain the body's balance. In fact, you can simply have a routine and thorough examination of your sperm to check the condition. If there are indeed issues such as abnormal sperm, then it may be related to you. Infertility can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and there is a high risk of recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medications must be used according to the specific symptoms, and patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
