15/f
i have suffered with acne for what it seems like FOREVER and im SICK OF IT. i just want it gone!but whenever i go to the dermotologist or doctor they say i have 'mild' acne and when i beg for something they give me a weak ointment to use that deosnt do crap.
so i talked to my mom and told her to call my docter and tell him to either give me accutane or birth control cause this is rediculous.
so my doc finally called back and was like no i dont want her to becuase accutane has so many side effect (my brother was on it though!) and that he didnt want me to be on birth control becuase i already have migraines and it would mess with them. so idk what to do!
im like begging my mom to call back and tell him i dont care and that i just want to be on something cause i want my face to be perfect so shes gonna try but i dont know if he'll let me! and i also asked him to let me on doxycycline hycl...whatever but he wouldnt let me cause it turns your teeth brown. UHG!
idk what to do! this is so stupid and its my body i dont get why he wont let me decide what i can take!
does anyone know any other acne medications to take? that work?
please please please thank you!

If you want to TRY Clearasil or Zapzyt and apply it twice a day every day it SHOULD start making a difference. Just be patient. [ Janie93's advice column | Ask Janie93 A Question ]
