Dr. Rahul Poddar MBBS, DNB, MBBS, DNB , General Surgery

No, Sertil doesn't cause acne. For treating acne, one must talk to a doctor. There are many over the counter creams available for treating acne such as topical antibiotics, creams containing ingredients like retinoids, salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, glycolic acid, isotretinoin, etc. There are many herbal creams also available which contain ingredients like fuller's earth, aloe vera, etc. However, it is best to see a doctor who is likely to prescribe a cream as per the skin type and severity of one's acne. Acne can be prevented or managed by eating a low carb, low fat and high protein diet, by drinking a lot of water, by treating hormonal issues and staying stress-free.
