Has anyone found that hormonal birth control increases the tendency of their flare ups? More specifically vaginal ones?

I've read in medical journals that hormones affect behcets outbreaks. Seems many women get outbreaks or flares right before their periods. Sadly, as a newly diagnosed person myself, I have no concrete suggestions. I would just different brands or no pill and see what's up.

Good luck. This thing sucks.
