Thats not sad at all!! Why did your doctor tell you to come off it? Do you think he could advise another pill, to help with your complexion? Oh how are your irregular periods, now that you've come off the pill, better (ok not that you'd know a month on)? I suggest going back to the docs about it, asking them if anything can be done.
If your reluctent to go on any sort of pill: Are your zits really bad?? or just average??
If there really bad go back to the doctors, because it is a problem. If there not too bad, maybe there caused by hormonal imbalances, caused perhaps by coming off of the pill, and they may go after your skin has settled. HOWEVER im not a doctor, if they dont clear up in a while, i suggest (you guessed it) see your doctor!!
