I am currently on levlen (ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel) ed bcp. can you recommend less acnegenic pills as i have never had a history of acne and for the first time i am breaking out?

See below: Birth control pills can aggravate acne initially, but over time, most will help improve your acne. Levlen (ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel) is fine to continue with - your acne should improve. In the mean time, use topical products with benzoyl peroxide in them.
