I've been facing this problem for 3 years now, and I'm thinking it was a reality check from the depo (birth control) I stopped taking. 

My face tends to be on the oily side.
I don't care about the bumps, I just want the dark spots to be gone, I've tried everything !!!!
My dermatologist gave me a NEW plan after epiduo not working out well, and will be getting on birth control again. 

Does anyone have any advice?

Oh girl, I feel your pain.

I'm dealing with persistent hormonal breakouts too (crazy flare-up in the past month which finally made me drag my ass back to the derm). You may want to ask your derm about Spironolactone which is supposed to lower androgens and cut back on oil production. The only down side is it may whack out your periods. I just started my regimen of 100mg spiro with BC pill AND a prescription topical, so still pending results.

What have you tried in the past? Did anything work before?
