Does birth control always make the girl breakout for the first 3 months of taking it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Some females do well with bc and get no adverse effects. If you feel the acne breakouts were definitively related to the bc pills, discuss with the dr. And possible a different dosing of the hormones in another pill may be better. Good luck.
