Question:

Skin bad after birth control?

0 LIKES UnLike

I've been off the pill now for about 9 months and my skin is just really bugging me. It's not really really bad or anything but I do have acne on my face and on my back as well. I exfoliate, then use an acne face wash, then a natural toner, and then Aveeno oil free lotion for acne prone skin. I do it every night! It's still the same. Is there anything that works besides going back on the pill?

  1. After getting off the pill, my skin went a little crazy and I broke out a lot.  It's really because your hormones and body are adjusting and regulating itself.  

    I used Retin-A micro, which helped clear it up in no time.  Outside of that, I use DDF products--their foaming face wash and the acne gel with benzoyl peroxide or the glycolic acid gel with salicylic acid.  All of this has been great.
