"I am taking this birth control solely for the purpose to help clear my skin. Although my acne is mild-moderate, I&#039;ve found that taking birth control helps alleviate it. The only real side-effects I&#039;m experiencing with Loseasonique are mood swings (only the first month of the pack), breast tenderness which can be really be painful sometimes, and increase in cup size (something my boyfriend doesn&#039;t mind). The birth control has helped clear my skin, but hasn&#039;t been as good as some of the others I&#039;ve taken. Time will tell, as is for any medication, so I&#039;m going to keep taking it and see what happens."
