    My 17 year old daughter was having frequent and/or long periods (2 weeks/mo)
    Long periods and moderate acne. She was prescribed Junel (1/20?). Her acne got worse for the first two months and there has been no change to her periods. Should she try this pill a little longer to see an improvement, or switch to another (and if so, which one)?

    How long has she been on this pill?

    Three months isn't really that long. It takes a while for hormones to regulate. I'd wait another 3 months. If it continues I would take her back to the doctor. LoesterineFE is a good pill for period problems and hormonal acne.
