Advice on Coming off the Pill? Skin/Weight etc!

    I need some advice girls. I have been on the pill for nearly 11 years and its time to come off I feel. We are not trying for a baby at present but may end up doing so in 8 or 9 months and I would like to give my body a chance to balance out or whatever. Ive been on a variety of pills over the years but the pill im coming off is Cilest and I have been on that for about 3-4 years.


    I am a little scared of nasty side effects though. I always had very clear skin as a teenager and never had any acne problems but once about 5 years ago - i came off the pill and my skin was a disaster. I ended up going back on and going on Dianette just to put an end to it. I am pretty frightened that this will happen again due to messing around with my hormones. Just wondering if there is any way to prevent this?? I heard some ppl take evening primrose oil. Just wondering if anyone had any other ideas


    Also, just want a heads up on any other possible side effects like dreaded weight gain..

    Thanks!
