Question 1

Does Low-Ogestrel cause acne?

Accepted Answer

Low-Ogestrel, along with other combination oral contraceptives, can make acne worse because changes in hormone levels can affect oil production in your skin. If you are interested in trying oral contraceptives to improve your acne, you can talk to your provider about trying a combination pill like Yaz which are approved to treat acne.

Question 2

Does Low-Ogestrel make you gain weight?

Accepted Answer

Weight change is a possible side effect for all combination birth control pills due hormonal changes that lead to water retention. This side effect is likely to subside so give your body at least 3 months to adjust before trying something new. You may also want to take note of any other recent lifestyle changes that could lead to weight gain — a change in birth control often goes along with changes in other parts of your life too!

Question 3

Does Low-Ogestrel cause hair loss?

Accepted Answer

Hair loss is a possible side effect of taking oral hormonal contraceptives. If you have a family history of hair loss or if you experience hair loss yourself, you may want to talk to your provider about birth control options with low-androgenic activity.
