hey all -

Desperately needing help . Long story short been on birth control (Apri) for around 5 years . Been on different brands of the pill in general for close to 8 years . Recently this past year I was lazy about the pill and took them inconsistently . This last month I have acne all over my cheeks/ jawline / and some on my neck. I always had pretty clear skin :( not sure what to do ?? Went to the doctor had blood work only result is low vitamin D- taking supplement for a week now. Back on Apri taking daily. Went to dermatologist and have been on 75mg doxy for a month .

Any suggestions ??

Hi, firstly your skin has obviously reacted with your birth control or the inconsistency of your regime. Secondly, as I am not to familiar with birth control, all i can say is that there is a lot of information/articles regarding your situation on this site, so it may help to take a look at these. Lastly, you have really good skin, and only mild acne, all i can say is don't over-aggrevate it by using different over the counter products etc. Keep irritation to a minimum in order to avoid the situation getting any worse. Thats the best advice I can give. All the best.
