Sometimes it does and sometimes it
doesn't. I personally improved leaps and
bounds, but it didn't happen immediately.

It could stop after being on if for a
while longer, but it might not.
If you want a pill that is more likely to
minimize acne, you can tell your doc,
because some pills are more known to do it
than others. But it doesn't always work
for everyone.

That one should help with acne. If your
acne is worse from it, it may be a
temporary thing if you are relatively new
on it. Ultimately it should clear up acne.
I'm on a pill with the same progestin,
into my 3rd month and still waiting for my
acne to clear...

I'm suffer for adult acne and I was using
Yasmin for several years and it made a
good job keeping my face in great
condition without any side effect. You can
tell your doctor about them and ask him is
their OK for you.
