When I was in my 20s my doctor told me about trying a new cotraceptive pill called Diane ED.This made a HUGE difference to the acne I had at the time.
Sorry guys this is only for girls being to stop pregnancy at the same time
But I took it for 2yrs and had great skin while on it!BUT after that time my skin did the opposite and became over dry.No moisturiser was rich enough to stop the flaky dry skin appearing.THEN this brown mark that looked like a sun spot appeared on my face.It looked like a mask around my eyes,forehead,cheeks.It left my eyes and an inch below them normal like a batman mask.I thought I had spent too much time in the sun.A few weeks later I ran into a friend of mine I hadnt seen for ages.She asked if I had changed my pill lately,I told her about the Diane.She told me that it could be a sideaffect,and read the pill info paper.When I got home there it was in black/white,I told my doctor and he scoffed that it was a rare side affect etc.I stopped taking it and in 4wks the whole mark disappeared! :eek: I would recomend taking this for a year to help your skin balance out,then change or stop it after that.It really helped to start with!
