Birth control Ovral-L causing acne
My periods were not stopping since 12 days and had to get a pelvic ultrasound for it. Ultrasound showed 4cm simple cyst in right ovary. I never had any pain there and my periods were always regular. But because they weren't stopping this time, I was prescribed birth control Ovral-L continuously for two months. I have taken my 7th pill today but I'm noticing many acne breakouts on my skin. My skin was very clear before and I'm certain that birth control started it. Can you please prescribe me another birth control that won't cause acne? Can I switch birth control in between?
