Yes, birth control pills can cause contact dermatitis and dermatitis caused by sensitivity to sunlight, although this is not a common side effect of these medicines. In the case of a proven tendency to discoloration, there is a risk of ostudy (darkening of the area of the skin in contact with UV radiation). Caution advised: limiting the time spent in the sun, using creams with a high filter and protecting sensitive parts of the body.
