I started taking Desogen birth control for acne 2 weeks ago and at first it was excellent. My existing acne cleared right up and my skin was so oil-free I didn't have to re-apply my makeup at all during the day (which I've had to do for the last 15 years!) Then just yesterday out of nowhere I woke up with 12 new pimples, 2 of which are cystic and now my face is as oily as it ever was. Does anyone know why this is happening to me? I've read stories about other people being on a pill for a few years and then it stops working, but how can a pill quit working in only 2 weeks?

Hi there, I think that it's great that you are taking something that has been helping you but I think that since it's so early in taking the pills that you can't really credit your acne clearing up to the hormones anyway. If anything, two weeks in is where you'd see more benefits fromt aking the pills. Have you been able to talk to your doctor about it? I think it's worth investigating. Let me know, okay?
