I've Got An Odd Question...please Help Posted: 04-19-05 20:42pm
I started taking birth control about a
year ago...Got off of it a month later due
to side effect of acne...My skin
cleared...I then went on to try another
b/c and got the same side effects. I then
quit taking it again...But my skin hadn't
returned to normal. It's been like 6
months and I have tried different ones to
try and now clear my face. I decided a
month ago to quit taking it all together
and now am wondering if my body will ever
go back to normal...If so about how long??
I never had a problem with acne as a
teenager and I am 21 now. Any response
would be helpful thank you!!!

hun... I have news for you... Acne is
something everyone will go through. I
will tell ya what I am on and I have no
worries really about acne... Yes it pops
up every once in a while but nothing to
kill my face. It is called the nuva
ring. It works, I have been on it for
almost a year and I love it!!! You dont
have to worry about times or anything
except once a month about. No worries..
Try it.. It works!!!

I would say it takes at most three months
before your body goes back to normal.
This means you could miss your period for
up to two months. I wouldn't worry - this
has happened to my girlfriend. When you
drop it altogether you can miss it for up
to that long apparently.
