Re: question on birth control

Of course we remember you!!!

Happy to hear from you and also that you think so much of us to ask for opinions.

I think that in light of the negative effect that birth controls pills may or may not have on your body, why not try (maybe you have already) other options.
Antibiotics, light facial peels, even regular facials may be of help. There is also some interesting articles on diet and certain supplements to help the skin.
I would exhaust those options first. (maybe you have?)

Sending you hugs,
Jean
