Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. My skin has always been quite good, but recently I've been getting a lot of acne on my face. It's said that birth control pills can treat acne. I've consulted with a doctor, but is it true that birth control pills can treat acne? Is this viewpoint reliable? I hope the doctor can help me clarify this.Doctor's answer:
The birth control pill does not have any effect on treating acne. It is recommended that you do not take medication blindly, as it may have negative effects on your body. It is advisable to visit the dermatology department of a regular hospital for a thorough examination to identify the cause of the acne and treat it accordingly. Pay attention to your diet and consume more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins. Get adequate rest and avoid staying up late. Additionally, patients should develop a regular sleep schedule, adhere to treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of illness.
