"i have been on lutera for a good 5 months, it was suppose to be good for my acne but has made my acne worse. it has caused me to become very irritated, but the reason i am switching is because it has caused heavy breakthrough bleeding, which is quite frustrating! i have been on 5 other birth control pills in the last 8 years, and never experienced this before. besides the breakthrough bleeding, it has made my actual period a lot shorter, it only lasts about 1-3 days, but i get it about every 2 weeks instead of my usual 29 day cycle."
