I know getting pregnant while on accutane causes mutations in the baby but do you have to be on birth control while taking it even if you’re not sexually active?

Since i do have acne what pills would work, that i didnt have to get a prescription for. And not over 20 dollars. And no birth control haha.

I am planning on starting to take birth control soon(most likely nuva ring), and I can’t take the acne medication I am currently on because it might interfere. I think I will wait a while and see if the hormones in the birth control help control my acne, but in case they don’t, could someone please suggest some acne medications that would be ok to take while on the nuva ring or any other birth control?

I was wondering if smoking will cause any adverse effects with the Yaz. I know that it bad for me, so please don’t preach about that. I just want to know the repercussions of smoking and being on Yaz birth control.

I have been taking YAZ for about two months now. Last month, my period was heavy and lasted about 7 days. Now, I have my period (2nd day into my period) but its very light and it’s more like spotting with not much red blood, but lots of brown. Is this normal? Is this counted for my period? Will my next period be heavy again? What did you experience while taking this birth control pill?

After a miscarriage in May, I went on yaz birth control and I had some bleeding from May 28 to June 14. On the 12th of June, I ran out of the first month of pills but I was planning to switch to another pill anyway. So I have been off of yaz and any form of bc since the 12th of June. I havent had a period yet and I am unsure if my bleeding was a period or from the miscarriage. Has anybody not had a period after stopping yaz and wasnt pregnant?

I have been on Yaz for three years now. My hair was curly but is now only wavy. Is there a better birth control pill or method I should use to get my curls back?

I started Yaz birth control last Thursday.
I had sex today.
Is this okay?
I heard you should wait at least a month on birth controls to have sex, but the booklet that came with Yaz said you don’t have to wait at all.
Any input?

I’m about to start Yaz, but I am unsure about the start day. I’m planning to start it on the "Sunday start" but if I do this it will be 7 days since my period stopped…does this mean I should wait until I start my next cycle to start the birth control? Any help will be appreciated!! Thank you =)

First and foremost, I have never had a huge problem with acne/pimples. However, I started taking birth control (Loestrin) about a week ago and now my face is a MESS. Is this normal? Should I call my gynocologist and ask her if I should start another brand of BC or should I wait for a few more weeks?
