Birth Control
"Hi all! No history of any acne during my teens. Started bcp when i was 17, now at 26 I went off (ortho tri cyclen) to try the Mirena IUD. I went from having not one pimple a year to about 5-6 large cysts a week. I had the IUD in for about 5 months and started breaking out almost immediately after i got it. I got the IUD out about three weeks ago and started taking Zarah (generic for Yamisn). My insurance will not cover Yasmin and I can&#039;t pay for it out of pocket. I&#039;m finishing my first pack this week, I&#039;ve seen no improvement. Will continue to take it until I get used to it and I&#039;ll report back to you ladies. I hear month 3 is the charm. Wish me luck. I hate make up and can&#039;t wait to go back to my clear skin again. This sucks!"
