Birth Control and Skin Reactions: Possible Side Effects & What to Do

Question
can birth control cause me to break out in a rash down near the girlie area i never had it until right after i started taking birth control last december

Answer
Hi Rebecca,

It's possible that this could be a side effect. The only way to tell, I think, is that you would go off the pill and try another kind of birth control method. Do you need to definitely be on birth control? You could also get a checkup just to see if that rash is anything serious.

Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com so I can find out what happens.

Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
