a bad sign?

Hey,
I have always had hormonal pimples, in fact, before I was on bcp I was irregular, and the only way I knew that I was going to get my period was that I would breakout. As soon as I got on the pill (marvelon / desogen) my face cleared up *bliss*!!! lately, I've been breaking out again (on the pill 6+ months), does this mean that my body is adjusting to the pill and / or horror or horrors - that I'm ovulating?? or has the evil pimple goddess just found my new address??
Any thoughts?
Thanks in Advance

It's not likely that you're ovulating on the pill. And it is possible for your hormones to adjust over time, is it just this one month or is this starting to be a pattern again? If it's a one-time-thing so far, I think I'd hold my breath and hope that it's just a fluke. If it's not and you don't want to deal with the pimples you might talk to your doctor about changing to a different pill (Yasmin?).
Good luck!
