In order to reduce my acne, which method of contraception would you recommend? (I was considering the implant or Kyleena)

The user is asking for advice on which contraceptive method to choose in order to reduce their acne. It is important to note that contraceptives like the IUD (such as Mirena or Kyleena) may cause acne as a side effect in some individuals. While options like the implant have also been associated with acne, it is generally rare. In such cases, exploring alternative treatments like topical creams or other contraceptive options, such as progestin-only pills or intramuscular injections, could be beneficial. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider or pharmacist to explore the best option for managing acne while considering contraceptive needs.
