Hormonal Contraception: The Pill [General Discussion]
in Women's Health ·
I’m not entirely certain if this qualifies under the scope of this specific thread, but here goes... so, I have PCOS, and I’ve been on Yaz for about a year and a half now. I never really dealt with any skin issues before, at least not until a few weeks ago. Now, I’ve developed these breakouts—or maybe they're just blemishes, I can't quite tell—on both sides of my neck. I suppose I’m looking for some perspective here. Is it possible that this is a reaction to the pill, or perhaps my hormone levels are fluctuating too much, or some other issue entirely? Has anyone else experienced their skin worsening after being on hormonal contraceptives for an extended period?
