well consider yourself lucky you don't have acne! that was something i struggled with for a VERY long time--ever since I was 15 i was on every kind of topical and oral acne medicine and nothing worked. then when I was 18 my dermatologist suggested i might have PCOS but he couldn't diagnose it nor did he suggest anything to handle the excess hair and uncontrollable acne. I ended up being put on Spironolactone by the first gyno that I saw but the spiro only made my periods come way too often (after trying 4 different types of the Pill they all really messed up my hormones and gave me really bad depression, nausea, and all sorts of other bad side effects) so I'm off the spiro now but with some good skin care products my skin is a lot clearer. |
