Types Of Birth Control Pills
I get many questions related to which birth control one should be on to help either treat acne or those that may be notorious for flare-ups.
Most women are not going to have acne flare-ups caused by a "wrong choice" of BCP brand and there is no reason for everyone to give up their favorite oral contraceptive. But if you purposely trying to select a brand of BCP to address acne concerns, discuss the following with your physician:
Yasmin, Demulen 1/50, Ortho-TriCyclen, Brevicon, Modicon, Necon, Ortho Evra, Mircette.
Remember that delicate hormonal balance? It is not unheard of when starting any oral contraceptive (even those meant to help improve acne) that acne flares may occur over the first 3 months of treatment until your body has fully acclimated to the change. This is not something to always have to expect or fear, but is certainly not unexpected.
I do want to stress that I am not advocating that all women take oral contraceptives to help their acne. The use of oral contraceptives is not entirely without concern. OCs can cause blood clots (especially in smokers), high blood pressure, and stroke and of course there is the on-going debate as to its ability to help or hinder in breast and uterine cancer as well as heart disease.
