According to Dr. Fulton, (co-developer of Retin A and acne expert) when you get on birth control pills you are only delaying your acne. In other words, you will have the acne you would've had once you get off the pills.
Yes, they can help with acne. Many people use birth control pills for more than prevention of pregnancy. I was one of those people and for me regulated my hormones.
Try "acne expulsion pills". Not only did it reduce my acne, it cleared it completely. I noticed significant results at the end of the 1st week. It's currently the top selling acne medication in China for removing acne, permanently. I used to buy it at a pharmacy around the corner from where I live, but since my acne is clear now, I don't need them anymore. if they don't sell acne expulsion pills; where you live, you can also get them at www.acnechina.com. I think they only cost around $30USD for a months supply. If your looking for a permanent solution for your acne, I highly recommend them. Take Care....

The following pills are higher in estrogen and may help your breakouts, (again, it won't CURE acne): Diane 35 (Dianette), Yasmin, Demulan (Zovia), Ortho tri cyclen, Nevicon Modicon, Ortho Evra, Mircette and Desogen, (April). The above lists are only a guideline to use when going to your doctor for birth control pills.
