Taken Lindynette But Had Pre Menstrual Symptoms. Prescribed Yaz But Had Bleeding On Minigyon. Acne Problem. Which Pill Is Right?

i am trying to find a birth control pill that suits me. At first i was on lindynette, but my face was breaking out a bit and i had pre menstrual symptoms everyday. My doctor recommended yaz, but this made my face break out even more and i had continuous break through bleeding . I have been on minigynon for the past three days and i just want to find how how i can stop my face from breaking out cause i never had an acne problem before and how to stop the break through bleeding. Is there a pill that is right for me?

Hello,
Since you have been having persistent problems with the combined oral contraceptives, you can see if you are able to tolerate only progesterone pills. These may be in the form of a depo shot, implant, IUD or oral medication. For acne, you would need specific treatment from a dermatologist. The triggering factors should be avoided. Intake of oily foods, fats, sweets and baked items should be avoided. Dandruff should be treated. Local applications and oral medication are used for treatment of acne. Hope this helps.
