"i went on this because i really liked the sound of only 4 periods a year (mine are miserable &amp; heavy). i didn&#039;t have any spotting on the 1st pack. however, on just about every pack since then i&#039;ve had anywhere from 1-3  weeks of spotting. sometimes it&#039;s just brown discharge, other times it warrants a tampon. my periods are just as heavy and miserable. i also initially had a massive acne flare up when i started camrese. about twice per pack i&#039;ll break out badly on my face - once during my period and about 2-3 weeks after that. i&#039;ll be asking for a different brand at my next visit. been on this for 1 year but hey, i didn&#039;t get pregnant."
