Hormonal Contraception: The Pill [General Discussion]
in Women's Health ·
I’ve been strictly on Yasmin and absolutely nothing else for a year now just to deal with my acne.
Seriously, no cream, no acid treatments—nothing worked to clear them up except these damn pills. Now I’m sitting here thinking about stopping, but I’ve heard horror stories that once you quit, the breakouts come back even worse than before!!
So that’s why I’m asking...
IS THERE LITERALLY ANYONE OUT THERE WHOSE ACNE DIDN'T COME BACK AFTER THEY STOPPED TAKING HORMONAL CONTRACEPTIVES??
If just one person could tell me it’s actually possible and they won't return... I would stop taking them this second. I do NOT want them back. Ever. It feels so unfair that just when I finally find the one thing that actually works... people end up suffering because of freaking Yasmin.
I already had my blood work done and everything looks totally normal, and I’m even heading to the clinic for some extra tests... but honestly, I’d be the happiest person alive if I could just stop taking these.😕 🤷 👎
