Yes, skin lesions, including acne rashes, can occur as one of the side effects associated with hormonal contraception in some women. Hormonal contraception, especially those containing estrogen and progesterone, can affect the hormonal balance of the body, which can affect the condition of the skin.
In some cases, hormonal contraception can lead to an improvement in the condition of the skin, and in others, it may happen that skin problems such as acne appear. These changes are usually related to the type of hormones contained in a given form of contraception and the individual body's response to these substances. You can consult your doctor, you may need to switch to another form of contraception.
