I have a friend who is on Accutane. You are required to be on birth control when taking Accutane because of the severe birth defects. What would even happen in a situation like that?

When I was on Accutane years ago, my doctor allowed my forms of birth control to be homosexuality and abstinence. For the record, this was also in Texas. For a lot of reasons, I refuse to take hormonal control just to fix myacne, so they let me do that.
