I would be really careful. Getting of the pill is what caused my acne. I never had any pimples hardly ever until I got off the pill Alesse for a couple of months to lose weight. I lost weight but then my face went nuts! I had never had any problems with my skin so I was so confused! I got back on the pill and this time it was Yasmin. It has cleared me up so much! It has also really helped alot of my friend's skin. I would stay on it if I were you. Why take the risk?
