"i started this bc at 17 and just went off of it a few months ago at age 19 to one that would help my skin.  big mistake.  i did not realize how great lo loestrine fe was until i was on a new one.  i experienced virtually no side effects - other than not getting a period whatsoever, even the first pack, which i loved.  other than that i felt absolutely no different, and while i&#039;m sad it didn&#039;t help my skin at all, i&#039;m starting to think that moderate acne is pretty small in comparison to all the negative side effects i have on my new pill. i think i will be switching back to lolo"
