Yasmin is making me oily?

I'm on Ocella (generic form of Yasmin) and have been taking it for the past 6 weeks in an attempt to clear up my period breakouts. I've noticed that in month 2 my skin has gotten a lot more oily, resulting in white heads, clogged pores, and a few cysts of week. I am aware I need to wait it out- but has this happened to anyone before? I knew my skin would get worse, but I didn't think it could get even more oily!

Thank you so much for your response! How has your progress been since then? I'm feeling extremely low and can't imagine another two months like this! I am using Ocella because I have mild acne (not extreme) but have oily skin and am known to break out in cysts around a week or week and half right before my period.
