I have acne, and cannot tell if it is due to my ADs or to other medical issues--insulin resistance, and possible polycystic ovaries. In any event, I just saw a new gyno, who prescribed alesse, a low dose birth control pill. She said she has read reports that it helps with insulin resistance, irregular periods, and acne. We'll see. I've only taken two doses.
I also have a question for Rach and any others on birth control pills: Today I was totally grumpy. It could have been not enough sleep, etc., but I also wonder if I should be looking out for reactions to the b.c. pills. Any insight?
