A member asked:
I have been diagnosed with melasma which i really want to fix, but i am scared of the side effects of going off the pill (yasmin). can i effectively treat melasma while taking contraceptives?

Yes: It is possible to treat melasma while continuing contraceptives. As any patient can have a unique scenario, you should consult a physician to determine the severity of your problems and then discuss what medications can you apply or other treatments that can be done to treat hyperpigmentation. Take care.
