Desogen or ortho tri-cyclen????

Was your skin worse before starting the regular Ortho? If you were clear before starting birth control at all, I'd say scrap it all and just go off BC. If you want to stay on I'd go back to regular Ortho or try Desogen or Yasmin.

I was put on ortho when I had really bad acne about 2 and a half years ago, and never had a bad experience, and I have stayed on it ever since even just for the other benefits. But that wasnt the sole thing I had. I had some face creams that were used in combination that changed throughtout (Differin, Benzamycin, and Retin-a Micro) and my skin cleared up extremely quick. I havent had acne (other than the general pimple or 2) since like.. 2003. But like other people said, I'm no doctor, and that's just my experience, everyone's bodies are different.
