HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
If you are still menstruating at that time then there are other hormonal agents that can be used to help you.
It is possible that in 3 yrs , you may not have as much as an issue with acne especially if you are menopausal.
There are other treatment methods for acne that you may be able to use.
This would include topical washes, topical or oral antibiotics, topical or oral retinoids.
I hope this helps
