history: I was on Yasmin for about 4 years, and about 4 months ago I asked my gyno if i could switch because i suspected it was playing a part in depression and anxiety. She prescribed me Microgestin, which I used for 2 months -- but slightly into the second month my acne was so bad I went to the Dr here and asked to be switched to something else. She gave me a prescription for Aviane, but as I was finishing up the second month of the microgestin, waiting to start the aviane, my skin started to clear. But i started the aviane anyhow, and now (at the beginning of the second month) my skin is so so greasy and oily, every pore is clogged, my chest is bumpy, and i have a couple deeper pimples around my cheeks and jaw.

so my question is.. is this just my body adjusting? i think i may have been too hasty in switching off the microgestin, and i dont want to make the same mistake with this if aviane will actually end up helping my acne. so how long should i wait? 3 months? 6 months?
