Thank you for your replies now did all of you go through an initial breakout? Becuase I think thats what I am going through right now and it sucks! but does it last long? It has already been over a week. Is yasmin a good birth control for acne?? I am on desogen right now I just switched to this in June from Mircette and I have a feeling thats what is also adding to all these breakouts. But I am going to see a new derm in a week for a second opinion. Finally the last week of August I have an appt. to fill out paper work for accutane.... because I have been fighting acne since 8th grade now 20 turning 21 in two months. Both me and my mom are fed up with dishing out money on things that just don't seem to work.
