About birth control:
Avoid low-estrogen birth control pills, Norplant, Provera, and Depo-Provera if you are acne-prone. Premarin progesterone hormone replacement can also be problematic. If you have polycystic ovaries, they will cause hormonal changes and breakouts. Taking birth control pills can delay the onset of acne, and once you decide to stop taking them, you may experience the acne you would have had before you took them. We call this method the "band-aid approach to acne."
