Contraceptive pill for skin...

[Sarahlouiseis33]

Are all contraceptive pills good for skin? I’m on Marvelon and while it’s good for spots, my skin has suddenly got oilier. I’m wondering if another pill might be better at controlling the oil? I’m usually shiny by 3pm x

Thank you!

Dianette - but you can’t be on it for long. Cileste was also good for me.

Yasmin works a treat for acne - you may still be oily but less so. Dianette also works but has terrible reviews - I found it fine mood-wise, but it made the skin on my body very dry when I used it for a prolonged period.

I get very painful, ugly, acne volcanoes on my face, back and chest so can live with being shiny.
