A member asked:
Which contraceptive pills don't have the side effects of dark spots on the face and that are safe to be used in the warm and sunny regions?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
All OC's can: All oral contraceptives can be associated with melasma. Some women are more likely than others to experience this because of their skin type. Use sunscreen on your face daily. Mineral powder gives added protection. A hat is very important when you are in direct sunlight.
