Mono Linyah Initial Breakouts??

I just started taking mono linyah, my first BC ever, and am on the inactive pills on my second pack. I have always had very clear skin, but when I started taking the pill I began to breakout and get pimples a lot more than usual. I'm hoping it's just my body getting used to the hormones, but I just want to be sure this won't be a persistent problem as I'm getting married in a couple of months... I've heard of BC pills causing some "initial breakouts," and that they usually clear up around month three. Help!

Yes, that is correct, usually most side effects go away, once your body gets to the medication, which the FDA lists as being approximately 3 months. During this time you may also experience nausea, headaches, and irregular bleeding.

If there is no improvement after 3 months, you should consult your doctor as this might not be the right one for you to take.

Congratulations on the wedding, I hope your special day goes perfectly.

Is there anything else I can help with?
