Has anyone gotten an acne problem while on
this pill? Is it good or bad for acne?
Thanks :d

The pill (inc low dose ones) are the same
as any medication, they can cause all
sorts of side effects (good & bad),
clear up or cause acne, gain or lose
weight(we almost lost our daughter after
her only being on the pill for 4 months
due to the side effects it had on her,
massive weight loss & huge decrease in
brain chemicals that control or keep under
control, stress - she got down to 32.2 kg
about 75lbs!!).
I also know a number of women who have
become infertile or had alotof trouble
falling pregnant after being on the pill,
again in some cases at least they were on
low dose pills for short time periods.
Just be careful & don't assume
anything is safe.
