Hi,

Thanks for writing in.
Your symptoms though suggestive of hormonal problem ; underlying cause for hormonal imbalance should be sought out.

Get ultrasound abdomen-pelvis done to rule out PCOD- polycystic ovary disease.
Get thyroid hormones and cortisol levels done to know if symptoms are due to hypothyroidism or adrenal problem.

Yamini as it is contraceptive pill , it will make your cycles regular and maintain estrogen-progesteron balance but at the same time will cause weight gain.

Pimple could be age related and can be treated with topical creams like tretinoin/clindamycin.
Consult physician and discuss the same. Do not blindly continue treatment until and unless underlying cause is ruled out.

Wish you good health.
Best regards,
Dr. Neelam.
