Has anyone's skin broken out after stopping the Pill?
Whenever I go off the Pill, my skin goes absolutely crazy. Pimples everywhere! I end up going back on it after a month or two just to clear my skin up again.

Has anyone else experienced this problem before? If so, did your skin eventually clear?

I'm wondering if I need to stay off them long enough for my body to adjust to being without all the hormones...

I was taking a pill that was good for acne. Now I have been off for five years and I still get acne. I just resigned myself to using ProActive which I LOVE!!
My mom had acne well into her 60's. I imagine I always will.

what pill were you on northernangel?

I think its temporarely (the acne)..Its a side effect.

Also, are you normally prone to acne even when you werent on the pill>?
