Initial Breakout during the 4th month possible?

Hello everyone!

So I am on my 4th pack of Yaz birth control pills finally and I have also been taking small dose of Saw Palmetto. I have been getting a crazy amount of comedones and microcomedones all over my cheeks and jaw line area since last week and I wonder if it is possible to experience initial breakout as late as during the 4th month?

Also, my last period was a lot lighter than the few previous months on BC. Usually my period would always either arrive before the first placebo pill or last beyond the last placebo pill, and it would last around 6-7 days. But this time it was only 3-4 days and also arrived on the second placebo pill.

Could it be that the BC pills are finally working now so that I have the purging? Or is it likely to be Becoz of other factors?

Thank you very much!!

Anyone? I am on the 4th pack and am still breaking out :( and I have recently gone off Saw Palmetto too because it gave me anxiety issue. This is upsetting :(

YES same thing happened to me. Im on diane 35 and my skin has been okay until month 4. This entire month is me breaking out on my cheeks. Did it go away for you?

Hey there! Unfortunately it did not! It got slightly better and then boom now on my fifth pack I am getting cystic acne again. This is quite confusing :/ not sure if this still counts as initial breakout or this is a signal of this brand of BC pills not working for me.
