Question by emmaL: Will new birth control effect my acne treatment?
For about a year I was using benzaclin and retin-a-micro for acne on my face. My derm is expensive so I try to only see her when I need to. I recently started taking a birth control pill and am worried about my acne. Should I go visit her or is it nothing to be nervous about. I do notice that my acne has flared up but will that go away after the three month “evil” test period for new birth control pills?
Thanks for any advice and help!

You should ask the place where you recieved the birth control. They should know if you will have any side affects with taking the two at the same time.
I would think it would help your acne because of the hormones in the birth control are said to sometimes help treat the acne.
good luck!
