Been getting some pimples (small, not so gross, but anyway!) on my chest and back. Should I go back to taking the pill??? I don't want to get pregnant just now, I topped taking the pill so that my body could have a little break from the hormones, I guess it wasn't such a good idea after all!

Your body does not need a break from the hormones-that is a myth. In fact, you actually messed up your hormones by stopping the pill. That is why you got acne. You hormones are completely unbalanced since you stopped the pill. I suggest that you get on the pill again, or just stop it 100%. Don't take breaks from it, that will only cause you more hormonal problems.

That can be related, but a few pimples isn't the end of the world. I think it's wise to let your body rest from BC periodically- but I'm not a physician. Ask your doctor what s/he thinks.

I feel you on that one. The same is happening to me too! I don't want zits anymore, but i don't want hormones either. I know I wasn't any help, but i feel your pain!
