She was treated with minocycline PO for 3 months with no improvement, and topical benzoyl peroxide and adapalene have also been tried. She is sexually active with one male partner, uses condoms inconsistently, and declines the combined oral contraceptive pill for now. Her last menstrual period was 12 days ago, and she has no medical conditions or allergies.
