Your post about BC pills just strengthened our resolve against choosing Kaiser. I’m trying not to get political here, but Kaiser no doubt pays for brand-name Viagra. Our daughter started to get severe acne at age 15-16. I was right there in the examining room when a Sharp dermalogist told us that the first line of defense for acne these days in women is a particular brand name of BC pills. These stopped the breakouts or she would be well on the way to being like my older sister, who has acne scars because, when we were teens, the advice was to avoid chocolate (wrong), wash your face every half-hour (wrong), and sit under a sunlamp at the derms’s office (also wrong).
