Could Severe Acne On Cheeks And Jaw With Irregular Periods Indicate Early Menopause?
Hi. I am 29 and suffering from severe acne on cheeks and jaw and irregular and missed periods, having stopped taking dianette in January. My skin has been problematic for 2 10 years and I initially had issues with my period in Jan 2014 for two months before going on to dianette. I am extremely worried about the possibility of this being early menopause.

Hello,
Acne and irregular periods are suggestive of hormonal imbalance and not early onset of menopause. I suggest you to consult your gynecologist for clinical assessment and hormonal profile.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
