A member asked:
Can overdose usage of morning after pill cause acne on face? i used 2 packages of norlevo in a month.

Yes, but briefly: Any change in hormones may cause an acne flare. Birth controls pills often help acne, but there could be a flare in the beginning. Good news is that the flare should be short lived (and your not pregnant).
