Default Spiro advice

Hi,

I have just started Aldactone (spiro) at 100mg/day, I was just wondering - how quickly do people notice results on this medication?

My doctor mentioned that the drug might not be as effective for me as I do not experience erratic menstration or some of the other symptoms associated with hormonally influenced acne. For those whom Aldactone has worked did you have symptoms (such as unpredictable menstration) in addition to acne?

Finally, has anyone found that taking Aldactone with a birth control pill such as Yasmin has made a difference is curing acne?

Thanks everyone - I hope spiro works for me, next to bat is Accutane, yikes!
