 [ Symptoms ] if i am using the correct acne treatment for me should i still be having breakouts about every other week  i am wondering if i should go to a dermatologist or if something over the counter will work for my breakouts my products i have been using for several months seem to clear my skin up for about a week then i will be all broken out and covered in pimples the following week i am really just wondering if i need a different product or if this every other week breakout is normal and expected thanks [ Disease ] hi i am no expert but i also chose the shot for my birth control and so have other members of my family it was the same for all of us our period was normal at first then eventually it went away as we kept taking the shot every 3 months i quit taking the shot after 9 months and my period has returned
