Should I use adapalene or tretinoin for my active acne?

I am a 27 year old woman with active acne since a year ago. Previously I worked at site construction and I might get my breakout from there since so many dusts surround me. But right now my acne seems severe, and I guess its because of my hormone. Now I use Differin Adapalene gel for my acne treatment. Then I do my research and someone with PCOS
said their doctor prescribed them with Tretinoin cream. Since my condition also the same, should I get one or just stick with Adapalene?
