I have been on Yasmin for the last 6 months, and I do see a big improvement. Yet, at the same time, I also stopped eating sugar, refined
grains, and started drinking green tea with fresh lemon. I also started milk thistle for liver support along with vitamin A, acidophilus and other supplements. I use Jojoba oil for moisturizer and only wash my face with salicylic acid cleanser once a day, otherwise just with water.
I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that my new regimen will keep acne at bay. I don't want to be artificially messing with my hormones and I don't need the birth control aspect and I'm well over 35 and don't want the increased risk of blood clots etc.
I'm hoping it wasn't just the Yasmin that turned things around. It really stinks
having to deal with wrinkes and acne at the same time ! Of course, I use Renova at night to try and kill two birds with one stone, lol.
Anybody got a similar story? I'll keep posting my results....
