Question: Why do they say birth control pills help acne!?
Answers:
if you are talking about yaz or yasmine it has to do with the type of hormones in the pill!.

but the makers of Yaz even state in their packet!. that "Yaz may also be taken to treat moderate acne in women who are able to and wish to use the Pill for birth control"

but I'm on Yaz and have taken Yasmin and my complextion is great!.

hope this helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

A lot of times acne is due to hormonal imbalances and excess of testosterone etc, and birth control is a hormone therapy that can help even these things out and often will help acne quite a lot!. But it also sort of smooths over some of the bumps and moods that make you you!.

I was on birth control for 7 years and it did help my acne, but I decided to go off of it because I personally didn't like the idea of a pharmaceutical regulating my hormone levels, moods and personality even if some of its effects were "beneficial!." When I went off, my acne got waaaay worse, but I have found acupuncture treatments, herbs and yoga do the trick more holistically!. Also, this great Desert Essence tea tree oil blemish stick stuff you can get at Trader Joe's (and elsewhere) that's really effective, oh and this soap by a company called Spring Wind with green tea extract really helped too!. It's only like $5 a bar!. But it's not for everyone!.

Please, for the love of god, do not let them put you on antibiotics like tetracycline for acne!. It is bad for you to be on antibiotics unnecessarily and bad for everyone else too, that is why we have super bacteria etc!. Just say no you don't want to be on antibiotics and they will understand!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Okay, my friend, who takes ance pills also takes birth control pills!. The reason is one of the side effects of the pill is that it might cause infertility and or harm the reproductive system!. The birth control pills kind of "protect" her reproductive organs, they make the impact less devastating!. ~So, birth control pills don't help clear acne, unless used with ance pills! ~Hope I Helped! ^^Www@Answer-Health@Com
