I was just wondering if anyone here has ever had a rash possibly caused by birth control ? I'm actually stopped taking the pill this week but I'm still curious if this caused a rash I've had. It's a bumpy itchy rash and sometimes appears in different patches. Sometimes on my legs, under my arms, breasts, waist and stomach. I've only been on the pill about 3 months. The name of the pill is lo/ovral or Cryselle is the generic name

An allergic rash can be a side effect of hormonal contraceptives and I don't think a delayed occurrence is unknown. However, I suppose it could be caused by other things as well. Did you change your diet or skin cleansing products, or did you get a pet or change anything else in your life about the time the rash began? It would be a good idea to discus your rash with your doctor. Let us know how you're doing and what method of Birth control you decide to switch to, ok?
Good luck,
Jill
