Birth control nonsense!
Last January I told my doctor that I needed to switch to a new birth control because the kind I had been on for two years never alleviated my cramps and I still had moderate acne. I realize that is not the main purpose for birth control, but if I could get a kind that had other benefits, I wanted it!
Anyway, she switched me to Beyaz brand birth control. By my next period, my cramps were GONE, my flow was so light and only lasted about 3 or 4 days, AND my acne was almost completely gone. My skin looked awesome. So I have been on Beyaz for the past year, except for one time when I missed a pill, started my period, and had to wait until the Sunday after my next period so that I could start a new month to get back on track. And again, my skin immediately got clearer and cramps stopped, period lighter, everything.
All of that being said, I just had to restart my pills last month. I know it sounds like I start/stop a lot, but I'm actually pretty good about taking it. Anyway, I have taken them all on time but I started my period EARLY, which NEVER happens with or without the pills, and now my skin is breaking out really bad. And I've been on my period for over a week. It's just light spotting, but still.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

We are not doctors and cannot make or give out diagnoses; only advice.
Since you are concerned, and you have a valid concerns here. My advice would be to either go see your doctor or call the office. If you call the office ask if this is something you need to be concerned about and if the doctor wishes to see you.
When it comes to medical problems, aches, pains something doesn't feel right. Just because someone else had a similar pain or experience doesn't mean what was diagnosed for them is your problem. Even if it is the same problem the same medication or treatment will may notwork for you.
This is why anyone in the medical field will tell anyone they can to never take someone else's medication. Only your doctors knows what you can tolerate and what works best for you based on his/her knowledge of your medical history.
Long story short: When having a medical concern or problem it is best to check with the proper medical doctor.

Always go to your doctor just to clarify. Unless someone here is a doctor or knows a lot about birth control, you can never be 100% sure. It might just be your body (hormones, flow) getting re-used to the pill, and if it's only been about a month or so since you started then that seems logical. It might just be like a balancing effect, because previously you only had short period intervals and your skin was completely acne-free. Anyway, if you want to wait then maybe wait another month and see what your next period is like, otherwise drop by your doctor and ask them what's up.
