I've been on it for 3 weeks now..and it has only made my acne 10 times worse.. Before I got on it, i had a few pimples around my chin, but in the past few weeks, the acne has spread all over my face and will not go away. I have tried everything. I have been reading reviews about it to see if I was the only one who had this problem, and I read that this birth control can make acne worse. Supposedly the regular Ortho Tri Cyclen is much better for treating acne.

I dont think it works though.
I take ortho tri cyclen (the regular one), I had acne because of my hormonal and my period was irregular.
So my doctor put me on this, after 3 months my skin starting to clear up and now after 5 months, I'm a acne free.
But the first month was like a hell, bloating and gain weight (of the fluid retention) and after that, back to normal

It works well, but you must do other things in conjunction, which doctors do not tell you.
Notice how many people have perfect complexion?
How do they do it?
I think it is diet, hygiene and keeping your hands clean and OFF AFFECTED AREAS.
I stopped wearing T-shirts and using Bar Soap. Dial soap is the worst.
Bar soap is made of animal parts and lard.
No greasy foods, no-dairy for a while, milk, cheese, eggs.
No chicken skin, no beef, no pork.
Eat lots of salads, greens, vegetables. Use olive oil and vinegar in salad. Drink fresh squeezed lime, lemon juice.
No-salt, no- sugar, no sodas, refined carbohydrates.
Eat natural foods and not processed foods.
More vegetable, whole grains (oats)
A few nuts.
Wash hands all day constantly.
Wash affected areas 4 time a day with a mild glycerin soap, Herbal Essence.
