I have been on the pill for 5 years and am 23 yrs old. last year i tried to go off of them but within 6 months i had the worst acne (cystic type which threatens major scarring) appearing so i went back on the pill. i'm scared the pill may be causing me to develop varicose viens in my leg and skin sensitivity to the sun, but i feel trapped because it seems to be the only thing that controls my acne.
i eat well (high % of greens and raw food, organic, etc), use natural products, am at a great weight and get enough exercise. is there any way i can wean myself off the pill? could i possibly start taking 3/4 of a pill per day for a month, then 1/2 the next month, etc??
