Can birth control pills treat acne?

Patient's question:

I've been getting a lot of acne recently. It's said that taking birth control pills can treat acne. Can birth control pills really treat acne?

Doctor's answer:

First of all, if you have acne or pimples again, this is mainly caused by blocked hair follicles, which is related to your daily diet and lifestyle. If you want to treat this, it is recommended that you use many professional acne products, while also eating less spicy and greasy food, and not working overtime. As for the method you mentioned, personally, I am not, because it will have side effects.
