Question
i have been on bc for two weeks not and i noticed my acne is getting worse so i'm deciding to stop as of today. when do you think my acne will get back to its normal and also i was wondering if my breats will shrink to there normal size before i started taking the pill? thank you  

Answer
It may take a month or so for your cycles and face to get back to normal.  I don't have a crystal ball about these things, every woman is different.  But your period may start sooner than you expect it because you've stopped taking the pills.  Just be patient and wait for your natural hormones to work again.  I think you've made the right decision.

Expertise

Natural Family Planning is a risk-free, safe, and economical alternative to chemical and barrier contraceptives. NFP is easy to understand, aids in fertility awareness for spacing children as well as increasing communication and assisting couples to concieve. I do not answer questions about other forms of birth control.

Experience

I have personal experience with all birth control methods, I practiced NFP throughout my child-bearing years and I am a paralegal with great research skills. I am totally convinced this is a viable alternative and I can back-up my statements with research.
