    I came off the pill (Yasmin) nearly 2 months ago. I never had bad skin before I was on the pill. However, my chest and back and face are convered in really bad acne for the last week. It's so bad on my chest that I wore a polo neck today to work so that it'd all be covered. Has anyone experienced this. Will my skin go back to normal in a month or two once things have settled or should I go to the doctor? Presuming it's all hormonal, but yuck!!!

    Have acne too, but not as a reuslt of coming off the pill! id say ur best off to go to doctor, they can give you antibiotics to clear it up, which will proababley do the job if you never had it befor this! It is probabley the hormones, but that seems very bad just for that! I found Nicam gel from Boots briliant 2, but go to the doctor its your best bet, you dont want to end up with scars or something over this!
