Yep, I stopped BC in August and my face is having issues!!! I don't normaly breakout either. I was one of the lucky girls who almost never had a breakout. And if I did it was only one tiny one!!! The first time I really brokeout was 4 yrs ago when I was pregnant with my daughter (also a very hard pregnancy) I believe its all the hormones!
I sell Avon and use there acne astringent pads. They do help!! I try not to use make up such as foundation, powder of blush on my face. Those can aggrivate the breakout!
I think when the hormones get back to normal the breakouts will end.
Then again....who know in my case, I'm trying to get pregnant....so I might just have them for a while.
What BC pill where you using? I was on ortho-try-cyclen. I know that pill helps with acne....so maybe its a combo of hormones and the pill!
Good luck to you, and if I find anything that works wonders I'll let you know.
p.s. I've been tempted to try the Proactiv acne treatment....have you seen that stuff before???
