DM/ShopApotheke/DocMorris online MD for Tretinoin Rx?

It cost ~25 euros. Does anyone have any experience with these services? Would they absolutely not prescribe it for aesthetic purposes like hyperpigmentation or anti-aging the same as any doc office?

Can feel a gap but cannot sink fingers through it.

I'm not sure if this needs more context. Just want to know if it is DR. I went to the doctor twice while feeling a gap with maybe half a cm (practically none) depth and with two different ob/gyns, it was said that they couldn't feel anything. One said that the separation felt was likely just the shape of the muscle and that I needed to strengthen it. Maybe 10 months ago it was 1-2 cm deep. Can anyone relate to this?

Again I don't know if more context is needed so you can just skip this rambley part, but the appointments were about 8 months apart since the first said to wait until after breastfeeding for further changes. FYI YouTube videos did nothing in the early post partum months. I went to a general family practitioner (hausarzt) and, just upon request (no manual evaluation), he gave me a prescription to go to a physical therapist - jesus, do I have stories about that and also further unnecessary context. The only thing I did between then and the disappearance of most of the gap depth, was the vacuum exercise mentioned in the NPR article with Leah Keller (now Every Mother co-founder).

Thank you in advance for any advice or clarity on my situation.

Edit:

Well I did find this:

DR chart, depth vs width

I don't understand how my ob/gyns aren't feeling the gap that I'm feeling with my fingers, but i guess I would only be borderline.
