"omg! during middle school i had acne and i started talking birth control pills at a young age for my cramps. i want to say my ninth grade year and have been taking junel fe consistently since the age of 20. i did not think anything of it, i thought my &quot;childhood&quot; acne was gone and boy was i wrong. once i stopped taking junel fe my acne was back like it never left. so i did some researching and in fact it was my birth control that was preventing me from having acne. i was happy but sad at the same time because i do not want to be on birth control for the rest of my life, so once my yearly package run out, i spend months trying to find an alternative &amp; failed :( junel fe is the only thing that works for my acne."
