"i used yaz when i was in varsity as i had severe acne. it took a couple of months to clear but when it did, my skin was completely clear!! i used it straight through for about 8 years. i decided to stop using it for about a year as i am much older now and assumed my hormones were in balance. it took about 4 months for my acne to start re-appearing and now its worse than ever again!! so i&#039;m going back on yaz and i&#039;m on month two and my acne keeps worsening each day! i&#039;m just trying to be patient and hopefully soon it will clear my skin again! i guess accutane will be my option for a permanent solution because i cannot be on the pill for life!! *hopeful for a clear skin soon*"
