How Are Skin Rashes Prevented From Spreading?

I had problems with my cycle for over a year. And the clinic suggested i use trigestrel just to get my cycle under control. I used it for over a month now but I developed this acne rash all over my face. And now it develops between my lower but cheeck. Is this a side effect or is there a problem with my body?

Hello,

Usually, the use of combined birth control pill like trigestrel can help improve acne.
While, in your case you see that an acne rash has developed all over your face.

I think it might be due to hormonal problems you are having more than taking trigestrel. As long as your cycle is under control, the acne rash will disappear.
There are a few things you can do to reduce acne rash:
- keep your face well clean
- avoid oily foods/chocolate
- apply tea trea /rosemary oil on acne to clear them

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other concern.
