So I have been using .05% retin a cream for a little over 9 weeks now to help with my acne...skin was starting to improve a little until about 3 days ago..then I start my period today..started breaking out along my cheks, chin and jawline. Im thinking my acne is hormonal as this us the only area I breakout on. Im going on monday to get birth control..i was wondering if anyone has had any success with retin a and birth control?..if so, which kind of birth control have tippy used?..would orthotricyclen or orthtricyclen lo be better?..im not going through a doctor as it is expensive even with insurance..i have an appointment at planned parenthood monday and they offer a variety of different kind of bcp, including orthotricyclen..so any luck with retin a and bcp? Thank you! |
