"i&#039;m 18 and have been on cryselle for around 3 years. i have 3-4 day periods that are generally pretty light and manageable. no weight gain or mood swings, but i&#039;ve suffered from acne since i hit puberty and recently realized that my skin completely clears up during my placebo pill week. i really think that the hormones in cryselle are what&#039;s been giving me such bad skin. although i really like everything else about this pill, i&#039;m switching to another next week that will hopefully improve my skin."
