"love the fact that i don&#039;t have periods!  however immediately after having it inserted, i started experiencing severe acne (i&#039;m 35) so this is seriously unacceptable.  it&#039;s so bad that it&#039;s all over my face, neck, chest, back and scalp.  nothing works to get rid of it.  i went to a dermatologist and he prescribed several items for me none of which worked.  i have another appointment to go in a couple of days.  there is a medicine that apparently works (i did lots of research online) that&#039;s called spironolactone that&#039;s used for high blood pressure and acne as well as a few other things.  people say that if they&#039;re prescribed 100mg, it works and they have almost no pimples after a few months."
