One of the most common questions that we are asked when a woman comes off birth control is how to manage rebound acne.

Women report feeling liberated through taking control of their reproductive health and relieved they don't have to deal with the short and long-term side effects of birth control, but how do they manage their skin after birth control when acne flares?

Causes of Post-Pill Acne

Certain birth control methods suppress sebum or skin oils. When a woman comes off the pill, the skin responds by up-regulating sebum and an overproduction of sebum and this up can last 3 to 6 months.

In addition, there is a significant surge of male hormones as the ovaries are awakened to function properly.

This is like a drug withdrawal process which peaks at 6 months and will eventually return back to normal once hormone levels stabilize.

How Do You Treat Post Pill Acne

It is very common in mainstream healthcare to be placed on hormonal birth control or spironolactone for acne but we have a better choice--the natural approach.

1. Avoid or limit dairy because it contains an inflammatory protein called A1 casein and a hormone called IGF-1. Foods to avoid are yogurt, cheese, ice cream and coffees with milk. Butter, sheep dairy and goat dairy are acceptable.

2. Avoid or limit sugar. Like dairy it spikes the hormone IGF-1. The worst form of sugar is in high fructose found in most desserts, honey, fruit juice, and dried fruit. Whole fruit is acceptable.

‍

3. Take a zinc supplement. Zinc reduces keratin, kills bacteria and reduces testosterone. The recommended dose for post pill acne is 30 mg a day of high quality zinc.

‍

4. Take a diindolylmethane supplement. This is a phytonutrient from broccoli. It is an androgen (male hormone) blocker and a widely used treatment for acne.

‍

5. Take the herbal medicine berberine. Berberine is an antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory herbal supplement that reduces IGF-1. It reduces androgens in women. It should not be taken if you are pregnant, nursing or combined with other prescription medications. Consult a physician beforetaking berberine.

6. Support health stomach acid with betaine hydrochloride. Birth control is as harmful as antibiotics to the stomach so many people who have been on birth control or have acne have low stomach acid.

While reducing inflammation and histamine will show some improvement in a few weeks, long-term results will take at least six months so this course may be challenging and require patience.

Alternative Birth Control Resources

At True Choice Medical Clinics, we understand that women are showing more dissatisfaction with the current birth control methods and their adverse side effects including post-birth control acne.

TCMC offers programs like FEMM education empowering women to achieve hormonal health through charting their cycles while working side-by-side with a medical professional who will help them significantly improve their overall health.

‍What is a period app?

‍

A period or fertility app is intended to help a woman learn what a healthy cycle looks like from menstruation, ovulation and post-ovulation phases and get the support she needs if she detects symptoms or imbalances.

Unfortunately, there is now an exploding market of thousands of period apps that claim to help a woman track her fertility, but have gained the reputation of being untrustworthy, ineffective and confusing for women who want natural birth control methods and want to avoid pregnancy.

‍

What makes a period app valid?

‍

First of all, most women believe that menstruation is the main event because it is the most visible, but the ovulatory cycle is the main event of a woman's cycle. A woman has to determine if her period app includes data on ovulation and other hormonal activity in her cycle.

There are several questions a woman should ask herself as a guide to the validity and accuracy of a period app in helping her make decisions to avoid or achieve pregnancy.

‍

Is the app backed by science?

‍

If the app is only asking for information about the first day of a woman's last menstrual period and monthly bleeding, it is most likely not backed by science. Furthermore, if the app is telling a woman when she will ovulate versus the woman inputting data about her ovulation events into the app, it is less likely to be backed by science and less reliable.

‍

Does the app ask for input about ovulation?

‍

If the only information a woman puts into her app is when her period starts and bases ovulation tracking on the days since her last period, this does not scientifically indicate a woman's fertile window. Instead, the app gives a ballpark prediction of the fertile window through an algorithm that is not reliable.

This ballpark prediction does not include information about stress, illness or other circumstances that may delay ovulation which can make the fertility window vary cycle to cycle.

Algorithms alone are not a great resource. They are a tool that can be used in conjunction with real time observations that can become variable and override the algorithm.

Even if a woman has regular cycles, she can experience circumstances that will trump the fertile window algorithm because the follicular phase is the most variable part of a woman's ovulatory cycle and depends on the events of the previous cycle.

‍

What information about fertility does the app ask for?

‍

Does the app ask a woman to observe and chart biomarkers like cervical fluid, basal body temperature or LH testing?

Cervical mucus is one of the most reliable biomarkers that can help a woman understand her entire fertile window.

Each month, a woman will experience a moist to slippery sensation when she wipes. She will observe a white, yellow or clear discharge.This is a sign that ovulation is near. The sensation, texture and appearance changes as ovulation approaches.

Initially, a woman will observe a white, thick or cloudy discharge which will alert her that estrogen is low, but beginning to rise. As her estrogen rises and ovulation approaches, the woman will observe cervical mucus that can be clear, slippery, lubricative, stretchy, abundant and resemble "egg whites."

Peak day is the last day a woman sees, observes and experiences this highly estrogenic mucus. A woman's fertile window is 3 days on either side of peak day.

The rise of estrogen triggers the LH (luteinizing hormone) to be released from the pituitary gland and causes the egg to be released from the ovary.

LH can be detected in your urine just like a simple home urine test. For LH testing, the woman will begin to test the first day she experiences a moist sensation or sees thick, cloudy white discharge. She will test until she is positive.

Her fertility window with LH testing is the day she tests positive +4 more days since she will ovulate 24-36 hours after a positive LH test.

Does your period app come with an instructor?

Even if a woman has the most reliable tracker for her ovulatory cycle, nothing replaces getting proper evidence-based education, guidance, support and knowledge from an instructor trained in reproductive and hormonal health.

Reproductive health educators can empower women to learn and understand their own biology and hormonal health. They can help women monitor cycle charting and hormone activity, give feedback on red flags for hormonal imbalances with real-time, measurable data and not merely a prediction.

In addition, the woman can track symptoms, medications, general health events and anything that would interfere with her normal cycle.

When a woman understands her own body, she can make better, informed decisions about her reproductive health and how to avoid or achieve pregnancy.

So you're pregnant and considering abortion - we know this can be a difficult decision for many women and the staff at True Choice MC is here to help answers your questions related to the abortion pill in the state of California!

‍

Will Medicaid Pay for My Abortion Pill?

‍

Yes - Medi-Cal, California's Medicare program, along with all private insurance plans in the state, are required to cover the cost of all legal abortions. 1,2

‍ California does not require women to provide a reason for their choice to abort and, according to state law, abortion is legal until fetal viability, at which point it is only legal in the case of life endangerment or a severe health risk.

If you are uninsured or want to avoid the headache of filing a claim with your insurance plan, your local pregnancy center provides free pregnancy services to help you during this time.

‍

How much does an abortion cost without insurance?

The cost of your abortion will depend on the type of abortion procedure you are acquiring, which will likely be based on the gestational age of your pregnancy.

Women in the first 70 days of pregnancy will have access to either medical or surgical abortions, both costing around $500 out of pocket. Those who are further along will be required to access a surgical abortion procedure, costing anywhere from $500 to $3,000 or more.

‍

What other costs should I consider related to the abortion pill?

As you decide if abortion is right for you, it's important to be aware of the various costs you may face in addition to the cost of the procedure itself.

These medical costs may include pre-abortion screenings (provided for free at your local pregnancy clinic), follow-up appointments, medications, emergency medical care, and mental health counseling in case of abortion-related trauma. ³

You may also want to consider the loss of paychecks due to time-off as you recovery from the procedure and the cost of travel and accommodation if required for abortion access.

Is abortion right for me?

When faced with an unplanned pregnancy, it's normal to feel overwhelmed with information and emotions and it can be difficult to make an informed choice for your future in the midst of your worry and fear. If you're still wondering if abortion is right for you, you're in the right place.

True Choice is here to help provide you with vital information regarding your pregnancy, free medical services, options counseling, referrals, and more!

Is Abortion Painful?

Some women find abortion painful, while others might only feel discomfort. Whether or not an abortion is painful is determined by several different factors, including:

● The type of procedure used

● Complications

● The patient's pain tolerance

● The anesthesia and pain medications used

Types of Abortion Procedures

The abortion procedure chosen is dependent on factors that vary in each situation.

Medical Abortion

A medical abortion uses two drugs, mifepristone and misoprostol, to terminate a pregnancy under 10 weeks. Side effects from a medical abortion can include:

● Heavy bleeding

● Abdominal cramping

● Nausea

● Vomiting

● Fever

● Chills

● Diarrhea

● Headache

Surgical Abortion

Surgical abortion uses tools to dilate (open) the cervix to allow the abortion provider access to the pregnancy. The abortion provider uses suction and other tools to remove the pregnancy from the uterus. Painful side effects to expect from a surgical abortion can include:

● Abdominal cramping

● Bleeding

What Are Possible Abortion Complications?

Like any medical procedure, abortion carries risks. Not every woman will experience complications, but if they arise, they can be painful and must be addressed by medical professionals as soon as possible. Risks of abortion can include:

● Incomplete abortion

● Heavy bleeding that will not stop

● Infection

● Fever

● Diarrhea and digestive pain

● Allergic reaction to the medications

You should seek emergency medical care if you experience any of the following during or after an abortion:

● Severe bleeding

● Fever that lasts more than 24hours

● Foul-smelling vaginal discharge

● Severe abdominal or back pain

● Your period doesn't return after two months

● Symptoms of pregnancy

Will I Be In Pain?

When it comes to pain tolerance, every woman is unique. Whether a woman finds an abortion extremely painful or simply uncomfortable depends on how her body responds to pain.

Your experience is the best predictor of your pain tolerance. Pain management for abortion consists of anesthesia and pain medication for aftercare.

For a surgical abortion, the abortion provider uses a local anesthetic (numbing of the area). The anesthetic injection can be painful, but a woman will not feel anything in that area until it wears off. Some women choose general anesthesia for a surgical abortion, but this is not always offered. It depends on the clinic providing the abortion and will be an increased expense.

For pain during a medical abortion and care after a surgical abortion, it is usually suggested that a woman use over-the-counter medications like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Motrin).

Are you feeling backed into a corner by your partner? Pressure to decide quickly about an abortion for your unplanned pregnancy isn't emotionally healthy. You deserve time because no one should tell you what to do.

Have You Confirmed Your Pregnancy?

You'd think a missed period or positive home pregnancy test would be all you need to decide. But women can skip periods for other reasons besides pregnancy, and home tests aren't always reliable. You need confirmation.

No-Cost Pregnancy Testing

At True Choice, we provide no-cost, lab-quality pregnancy testing. Privately meet with our caring and professional medical staff to get immediate and accurate results at your appointment.

No-Cost Limited Ultrasound

Why do you need an ultrasound? The American College of Obstetriciansand Gynecologists (ACOG) estimates as many as 26% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage. Getting a positive pregnancy test result is possible even if you have miscarried.

Plus, the number of weeks you've been pregnant determines your abortion procedure, and an ultrasound can verify the date.

How Do I Make A Decision?

Has your partner threatened to walk out if you don't have an abortion? Are you afraid to tell your family you're pregnant? These and other reasons are why some women choose abortion.

No one can legally force you to make one decision over another. Ultimately, you will have the physical and emotional responsibility for your choice. The final decision is always yours.

Is Abortion Right for You?

Before you make a decision, learn about abortion procedures, the physical and emotional side effects, and potential risks. The following are just a few of the risks associated with the abortion pill:

● An incomplete abortion

● Ongoing pregnancy

● Heavy and prolonged bleeding

● Infection

We provide accurate information about abortion, so you and your partner can make the best choice. You have the right to know all the information so you can make an informed and educated decision.

Learn Your Options

Despite the pressure, take the time to learn all of your options. Yes, abortion is one choice, but you have others.

Whether you and your partner are serious about a future together or not, don't immediately count out parenting. We can provide ongoing support during your pregnancy and beyond. Our team can connect you to community resources and assist with health insurance, social services, and other organizations.

If you and your partner are not ready to be parents or don't want the responsibility, consider making an adoption plan for your child. You can select the potential adoptive parents by choosing an open or semi-open plan.

Often, adoption agencies offer resources to assist you with pregnancy-related expenses too. If you choose an open adoption, you can still contact your child while connecting them to their biological family.

We Are Here to Listen

Choosing what to do about your unplanned pregnancy has life-changing consequences. We are here to listen confidentially about your situation and help you decide your best option. Call us at 858-397-1970 to schedule your no-costappointment. Take the time you deserve to make the right choice for yourself.

It is time for the routine Pap smear again. As the drape goes on and I place my feet in the stirrups, I remember, it is not the procedure I dread, but the conversation at the end.

It always starts off so well -lots of small talk- and then, the same question is asked that I have answered so many times:

"Have you considered going on hormonal birth control?"

And for what seems like the 100th time, I answer, "no, I learned about my cycle, how to track it and all my symptoms have improved. I like to know exactly what is happening with my body and you can't do that on birth control."

Not that I need to justify my own health decisions, especially when they are informed, but I feel confident that I can advocate for my hormonal and general health, despite the eye roll and dismissal of the obgyn.

And while this is not the case for so many women, there are more women speaking up to help bring a change in reproductive health.

The Untold Truth

Many women who have painful, heavy or irregular periods are instructed by the doctor to go on birth control to regulate their menstrual cycles. Many women are under the impression that birth control will solve all of their period problems but this is not the truth.

Unfortunately, women are deceived to believe that they have regular cycles on hormonal birth control because their periods come like clockwork every 28-30 days. The truth is that hormonal birth control actually stops menstruation.

When a woman takes hormonal birth control, she can bleed every 28 days but this is not a true period; this is withdrawal bleeding from hormone suppression.

In order to have a true period, a woman must ovulate. Hormonal birth control completely or partially suppresses ovulation. When hormones are suppressed or absent, it is impossible for the body to make the hormones required for ovulation.

The Truth About Side Effects

Many women are not told the side effects of hormonal birth control which may include blood clots, anxiety, depression, weight gain, infertility, inhibited brain development, heart health issues, and immune system health issues.

Women are not learning that there are side-effect-free methods of effective natural birth control methods that can also shed light on reproductive and menstrual disorders that are too often covered up by birth control and not treated.

Women need answers to the symptoms they are experiencing and there are providers who can provide those solutions.

Alternative Birth Control Resources

At True Choice Medical Clinics, we understand that women are showing more dissatisfaction with the current birth control methods and their adverse side effects.

We understand that through correcting hormonal imbalances that can cause painful periods, heavy periods, irregular periods and infertility, a woman can better her health and wellbeing.

TCMC offers programs like Whole Body Health Education empowering women to achieve hormonal health through charting their cycles while working side-by-side with a medical professional who will help them significantly improve their overall health.

Maybe you're set on getting an abortion and nervous about telling your partner. Though you are legally not required to get your partner's consent before an abortion, you should consider hearing their thoughts beforehand.

‍

1. Listen to Your Partner's Insight

‍

It can be difficult to be on the same page as your partner, but it's essential to do your best to hear him out. Try to stay as calm and collected as possible. It's best if you can make this decision together.

Once you've shared the news, listen closely to your partner. They may or may not feel the same way about your pregnancy. Your partner may be quick or slow to respond. Give them the time they need.

Let them give input, as it may surprise you and offer you something else to consider regarding the decision.

‍

2. Be Mindful of Your Safety

‍

Your safety is number one when sharing your pregnancy decision with your partner. If you feel uncomfortable when it comes to speaking about options with him (due to verbal or physical harm), it may be best to share the news over the phone.

Avoid putting yourself in danger if you feel likeyour partner's reaction will not be appropriate. Speak with someone you trust, a close friend or family member, or talk to us today about any concerns. We are here to listen and provide practical options. Call us at (858) 397-1970 or text (858) 822-9335.

‍

3. Get a Medical Assessment First

‍

Before scheduling an abortion, make sure you have verified your pregnancy and eliminated any other risks. We offer the following no-cost services:

‍

Pregnancy Verification

Verification includes a lab-quality pregnancy test and ultrasound to learn if your pregnancy is viable (growing) or if you have miscarried. An ultrasound accurately determines how far along you are in your pregnancy which indicates the method of abortion available to you.

Limited STD Testing

A study reported by the National Institutes of Health ( NIH) strongly recommends getting tested for STDs before an abortion. Possible complications of post-abortion infections include pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).

‍

Private Health Assessment

Meet with a medical professional for a confidential health assessment and consultation.

‍

Get Support Today

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) have been a public health issue for many years, affecting millions of individuals annually. Sadly, in recent years, the incidence of STIs has risen to record highs, which is worrying as STIs can have severe health consequences, including infertility, chronic pain, and even death.

What are the reasons behind the rise of STIs?

Various factors contribute to the increase in STIs, such as:

· Lack of knowledge: Many individuals are not aware of how STIs spread or how to safeguard themselves.

· Increase in sexual activity: More people are engaging in sexual activity at a younger age and with more partners, raising the risk of STI transmission.

· Limited healthcare access: Many individuals lack access to affordable, private, and convenient STI testing and treatment.

True Choice Medical Clinic is committed to reversing the statistics, restoring hope, and assisting people in our community in taking control of their bodies and sexual health. Our emphasis is on prevention through education. Our trained registered nurses educate our patients on various types of STIs/STDs that can spread through bodily fluids such as vaginal fluids, semen, or blood. Although abstinence is the only method of preventing STIs contraction, we encourage our patients to seek medical screening immediately if they've had unprotected sex.

We do not want anyone to become the next statistic of an STI, or experience an unplanned pregnancy. True Choice Medical Clinic is easily accessible. If you are concerned about an STI, or if you are pregnant and not sure what to do, make your no-cost, confidential appointment by calling 858-397-1970 today.
