[QUOTE="ButtterflyLady, post: 952455, member: 43498"] I think the GP is taking the wrong approach. This is not just "cosmetic", this is about psychological health and the risk of permanent scarring. The DVT/PE risk for young women with no other risk factors is minimal. It's usually women over 35 who also smoke or have a family history who are at risk of these complications. If your daughter wants to try contraceptive therapy for her acne she might want to see a different doctor. Severe acne is a very unpleasant condition and I am sure there are other doctors who would take a different view than this GP. Sorry but things like this rouse my internal Mad Mama Bear tendencies, lol. [/QUOTE]
