Intolerance: There are multiple nonmedicinal ingredients in ginette35 and it appears you are intolerant of one or more of them. Report your symptoms to the prescribing physician or dermatologist before stopping the medication to determine if it's the culprit. If it is ask about other acne treatment options.

Birth control : When one is taking a birth control pill ovulation does not occur. Each pill is the same except for the last 7 which contain the placebo pills. The 16th pill is the same as the others. Consider seeing a gynecologist so that all the possible causes of pain can be considered. If you are unhappy with your current birth control then other options may be considered as well.
