"i&#039;ve been on ortho tri cyclin for about 12 months and my skin has been flawless. i love how it&#039;s cleared up my acne but i&#039;m having major breakthrough bleeding at the moment. i missed 2 pills about 2 weeks ago and i have since then been bleeding continuously and i&#039;m just about to go on my placebo pills, so after i&#039;m finished with this pack it will be about 3 weeks with constant bleeding and it&#039;s terrible. even when i didn&#039;t miss any pills i would have breakthrough bleeding the week before i started my placebo pills and it would drive me nuts. saw my doctor and i&#039;m going to try out another acne birth control, yasmin so hopefully all goes well...."
