Stopped Bc Pill, Now Acne On Back/shoulders Posted: 10-23-05 17:35pm
Hi!
I was just wondering if anybody out there
has experienced this. I stopeed my bc
pill two months ago after being on it for
almost 11 years straight. Ever since I
stopped it, I have broken out on my
shoulders and back like mad and it gets
worse around period time as well. My skin
has always been oily, so I take a zinc
supplement to keep that at bay and I also
have been taking the herb vitex-
chasteberry tree- to regulate my periods
and to get control over my hormones/pms
symptoms. I do take many vitamins and
such so I was thinking it could be
something i'm taking, but I just about
ruled everything out. The acne is not
horrific, but it's enough to keep me
annoyed and feeling yucky. I also use
neutrogena body wash for body breakouts as
well. Has anybody had this happen to
them?
