"background on my skin type: asian with oily skin. prior to tri-sprintec, i had large pores and i would get cystic acne every time i broke out. i noticed a great improvement in my over all skin and complexion on this pill, i also never broke out other than around my period. i am currently on microgestin (i stopped taking the pill for a couple of years and my new doctor prescribed me this birth control instead) and it&rsquo;s causing really bad cystic acne all over my cheeks and chin. i definitely recommend tri sprintec over microgestin."
