Beauty Tips For Body Care
I've had PCOS for a number of years. Birth control helped with my acne, but caused other unwanted side effects. . .so much so that I have gone off it about 3 times. Each time, I regret it, because my skin basically flips out from the chest up, and my face is like an oil slick.Anyway, I went to the gynecologist today to discuss alternative options, and I asked him if I could try Spironolactone instead. I've heard good things on here and from a number of people in real life. I live in Germany, and unfortunately, this doctor informed me that they are not allowed to prescribe Spironolactone for the purpose of acne/hirsutism treatment here. Why, I have no idea. . .He then suggested Cyproterone Acetate. I've read a little about it, and I don't particularly like what I am reading. It can apparently cause Osteoporosis with long-term use and you need to have your liver checked periodically. It also says that it lowers estrogen and raises prolactin as well. . .none of which sounds good to me.Does anyone have experience using this medication? Was it successful for you? Were there any long-term side effects or side effects that were particularly bothersome?Really just wish I could go on Spiro. . .
