Birth control is making my acne worse?

The whole point of me going on birth control was to help my skin and its making it so much worse.

The pimples are getting bigger and i have so many more of them.

Is this normal?

(This is my 3rd or 4th month taking it)

    This can happen, but don't despair. Every woman responds to every birth control differently. Just tell your doctor and they'll prescribe you a different one. You may want to see which ones your insurance prefers as this will help avoid the heartache of switching over and over again trying to find one that your insurance will give you a good rate on.

    Just goes to show that artificial hormones are no good for you!

    Go back and talk to your GP again.

    It doesn't work the same way for everyone. Same thing happened to my gf, had to switch to condoms.
