No Problems with Alesse
I truly believe that each individual has different experiences and methods that work them when it comes to not only acne, but their overall health. Personally, I never experienced any bad side effects from Alesse or it's generics. I was on different versions of it for about 8 years (16-24) with no problems what-so-ever. Previous I had tried the deposhot, orthoevra patch, and plan B a (couple of times). Also, no bad acne reactions to those methods neither. But, as soon as I switched from Alesse (or its generic) to Yasmin (Ocella) for issues with what my NP thought might be PMDD (I regret complaining about anything mood related now!) I broke out with crappy acne. Only mild-moderate but still no fun when you're used to having perfect skin. Still contemplating going back on it or just going with spironolactone as suggested by my doctor.
