1. No, I don't thing so... Birth control is a hormone and that is not a Dermatologist field, but rather a GYN. Yes, even though the side effect of the birth control is acne control, the primary reason for that medication is "birth control". Let me give you an example: If you want a steak where will you go? A.) Burger King B.) Pizza Hut C.) Morton's Steakhouse My ansewer would be go to a steakhouse if you want a steak and Burger king if you want a burger and so on....
