Acne
"My doctor recommended a gildess fe 1/20 when I complained of the water retention I experienced from Ortho Tri Cyclen (which left my skin clear). Well, this pill does not cause bloating but my skin immediately broke out terribly along my cheeks, jawline &amp; chin. I decided to stick it out since aside from the acne I had no other side effects but the breakouts lasted way longer than I anticipated (about 6 mo). I still get the occasional pimple along the jawline but I&#039;m hoping that they will become less frequent. Taking evening primrose oil (1300mg 2x/day) along with the pill seems to help calm inflammation and lessen hyper-pigmentation from the breakouts ."
