Update on experiences using retin-a, tetracycline, and Yaz to treat acne. Yaz is causing me to be depressed, a side affect that I had not known prior to taking it.

I’ve only been on Yaz for a week and a half, but I don’t feel depressed. I’m emotional, but not depressed.

@jburckhardt thats good it has improved your skin at least! thanks..my skin has gotten alot better! i hope the same for you

jburckhardt April 25, 2010 at 10:02 am

it happened the same to me, the worst depression i have ever felt…I’ve being using YAz for 3 months now and my skin looks way better but im risking my life a lot and so do you do, so I stop for this month by taking the pills and lets see how it goes….i hope you get better even though your skin from my point of view looks good ;)

Jenabeebee April 25, 2010 at 10:04 am

@ClearSkinConneXion hmmm i never heard of it bt ill look into it!

ClearSkinConneXion April 25, 2010 at 10:20 am

Murad Post-Acne Spot Lightening Gel…AMAZING!!!! Much cheaper to buy from Amazon…than from Murad or Sephora….

MsZfr April 25, 2010 at 10:28 am

Glad your skin is doing better. :- ) Are you currently taking tetracycline, along with the Yaz and the Retin-A? How long were you on or do you plan to be on Tetracycline?

LADYGUTTA305 April 25, 2010 at 11:16 am

try hydroquinone for the scarin. it works well

Jenabeebee April 25, 2010 at 12:16 pm

@bday185 no it didn’t come back even when i was only just using retin-a. the anti-biotics and yaz pretty much settled it and the retin-a i just used to maintain it..it was fine without the pills.

bday185 April 25, 2010 at 12:38 pm

Do you mean that your acne get back even with retin A? I just don’t want to try another cycle with antibiotic (mine is doxycycline)
My docter prescribed me Doxycycline and tell me to put Retin A after 1 month to maintain clear skin. Doxycycline work for me after a week (side effect too).

Jenabeebee April 25, 2010 at 1:09 pm

@loveingeverything yea ive heard retin-a is supposed to be good to heal scarring..

Jenabeebee April 25, 2010 at 1:20 pm

@bday185 thats fine i think i went off the pills and just used retin-a for awhile until i started up a different routine.. as in medicine do you mean like anti-acne pills?

bday185 April 25, 2010 at 1:28 pm

What happen if you stop taking medicine and only Retin A. My doctor give me retin A to maintain my skin after the course. I haven’t tried it yet because i’m still on medicine.

loveingeverything April 25, 2010 at 2:23 pm

Hey, I am using retin a along with the medication. It wasn’t working for me for a while because it was making my skin really dry so I would stopped using it. But I started to stick to it consistenly and with in a few weeks my skin cleared up. Just like you I had scares left over…so it still looked like I had pimples. But just stick to the retin a it helps with scarring and they will slowly fade away. Well atleast thats what happened to my scares. Hopefully this helps!

Jenabeebee April 25, 2010 at 2:56 pm

@ChellChronic same thing happened to me! its like one day my face is completely clear and the next all hell breaks loose! but don’t lose hope..I mean it definately takes time (even though 3 months is a while) but even if those things don’t work out for you there are plenty of other options… not everything works out for everybody. but even though the road seems hard you need to just keep telling yourself things will get better because it really will. it just takes time unfortunatley.

ChellChronic April 25, 2010 at 3:17 pm

Acne is wayyy depressing. I used to never have it, then I started getting a few pimples here and there, and then full-fledged pizza face. :(
I’ve been taking minocycline pills and using two different gels for about 2 or 3 months…it’s gotten worse but I suppose it’s improved a bit as well. I’m starting to lose hope.

Jenabeebee April 25, 2010 at 3:59 pm

@jburckhardt im sorry if its making you too depressed like it made me I would get off of it but if its not definatley hang in there and try to be patient yaz does work really good to help acne its only a matter of time..just be hopeful and know things will get better

jburckhardt April 25, 2010 at 4:42 pm

yeah i had the same symptom..it was horrible the way I felt…. for two weeks consequitives…i havent get any good results :( my skin still the same and looks kind of worse very reddich :( i dont know what else to do about it …im in the second month taking those pills but it worries me pretty much that has a high potasium and with the time can appear some brown spots because of the potassium (sorry about my english) ..sad about the results :(

SIIGAILAS April 25, 2010 at 5:46 pm

dam your cute

Jenabeebee April 25, 2010 at 6:06 pm

you think so! well i did notice that my face is pretty light compared to my hands and the rest of my body..maybe the retin-a does have something to do with it

Jenabeebee April 25, 2010 at 6:09 pm

yea i did also hear tetracycline is linked to depression so just to be safe I got off of it along with the yaz. I mean before i started the pills I probaly would have said even if i got depressed i would still do anything to get clear skin but now that i really am depressed its just not worth it. I am hoping that the retin-a can finish the job on its own

2Preciousxx April 25, 2010 at 6:16 pm

OMG !! Do you notice how light your skin has become? theres a stark difference between it and your body! I’m not saying this is bad, i think your skin looks great, i just didn’t know retin a did that!!

TheFairies4ever April 25, 2010 at 6:33 pm

sorry does not write very well English

TheFairies4ever April 25, 2010 at 6:43 pm

TheFairies4ever April 25, 2010 at 7:09 pm

I am also being treated with tetracycline and can tell you that the first two months suffered from terrible depression that saw no improvement in my face, but I played appointment with the dermatologist and he said he was better, well I cleaned and I iso said partille continue to take the two months longer,
