Can birth control help control acne?
One cause of acne is the hormonal imbalance that is occurring in your body. Some people need that
little extra help when it comes to controlling their acne and acne outbreaks. Some doctors and even dermatologist will suggest or prescribe several different medications. Some of these are creams, birth control pills and antibiotics. For some women birth control pills are prescribed because the pills will help to stabilize the fluctuation of hormones within the body that can cause acne. Dermatologists often try birth control pills along with other medications to see which treatment works best for the patient. If you are concerned or have more questions as to why and how the two are linked together make sure to discuss things with your doctor before starting any kind of treatment.
