Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo : Oral Contraceptive

So I've always had pretty average skin, some pimples but nothing major. Then, because of such great reviews, I decided to try a facial and a microdermabrasion at a spa and while that portion was nice, the workers recommended I use a dermalogica skin care kit, but after 2 weeks my face was terrible. So I decided to go the doctor to see what I could do and she recommended me antibiotics, a topical, and birth control to help with acne. So far I'm 3 months & 3 weeks in and my cheeks have broke out way worse (hormonal acne,something I've never had) and my mother keeps begging me to get off it because she thinks it's making it worse, but I keep insisting that it takes time for your body to adjust. Now I'm scared it's not working. My acne is only on my cheeks, something I've never had, and I keep up a simple yet consistent night/morning routine but nothing is working. I've decided to go on Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo for another 3/4 weeks to see how it goes (making it about 4 months and a week in total) and if it's gets better, I will continue, if not then I'm gonna stop taking it. I know some girls say that it takes up to 6 months to see improvement but I've been waiting for 3 months + just to see some change, so my patience is wearing thin. As for side effects, I've only noticed that I cry much easily than before but that's it. Will update ASAP. UPDATE 6/3/16: I went off the pill about a week after this post because I just couldn't take it anymore. Since then, I've had a very heavy period and I noticed that my hair (eyebrows and body hair) grows much faster and thicker. My skin does seem to be improving ever so slightly , but it's only been 5 days so let's see what the rest of the month holds in store. UPDATE (8/1/26): Ever since I stopped using this pill, most of my acne has cleared, maybe only like two or three pimples remain but the scarring left is so terrible :( When I wash my face I feel how smooth it is but then when I look at it, its so red and even brown in some spots. I look back at old photos of me without makeup and I realize how much better my skin was and it makes so irritated I took this in the first place. Please don't try this if you dont already have severe acne! If you have mild or moderate, it will only make it worse.
