Have you ever tried the Depo Provera shots? You get a shot once every 3 months from your doctor. Usually within the first year, your period will stop. The only reason I took deposit was because I had horrible period c pain and I would (sorry so graphic) bleed for half of the month, very heavily, on and off. It started when I got my period when I was 9 years old. So I had been dealing with this for a long time. For the first year, I spotted, and after that, I never had a period again. It was wonderful. My skin was clear also, but I'm not sure if it's due to the Depo, you'd have to look that up. But to me, it was so much better than the pill.
