I was wondering if anyone has any advice for me...

I was on Cerazette for nearly 3 years, and being in my late teens at the time was very naive to the thought of side effects. I had spots-around my chin and jawline. I was at the end of me tether and suddenly put two and two together. I did a bit of research and it seems a focal side effect of Cerazette is acne. I was never told this, I was somewhat disappointed at my doctor for not supplying this information to a young girl, considering I had been on antibiotics for my spots and had many times asked their advice. So, three months ago I changed to Micronor...(I cannot take the combined pill due to migraines-another thing I am disappointed in the doctors for as they didn't inform me it could cause them, as a result I had a severe migraine where my whole left side went numb.)...

I am on my third packet and have been monitoring myself. I am finding myself to be feeling down frequently. I have just today come on my second period whilst on them, this is all a bit daunting to me as for the last three years I have had no period on Cerazette. I want to come off the pill altogether now. My skin has got even worse on Micronor...

I am going on holiday tomorrow and am scared I'm going to bleed heavily, is there any way of calming this down-maybe take 2 Micronor pills a day? I want to come off it altogether but am scared I will bleed a lot heavier on this period if I stop taking it?

Thanks
