Acne and birth control

So I have been on ortho tri-cyclen lo for about two years now and I have done pretty well with taking it. I messed up a few weeks ago because my schedule was so out of wack and forgot three days worth of pills so I had to quit my pack and wait for my next cycle to start a new one.

I have never been one to have terrible acne but since I quit my pack my face has gone crazy. Regardless of what I do my face is breaking out unusually bad. I am washing it of course in the mornings and at night before I go to bed and I use bare minerals makeup. I have heard that some birth control pills help with acne. I am not finding a whole lot of feedback on the net so I was wondering if you girlies could let me know if the bc is whats causing my face to go bonkers. I start the new pack on Sunday and am hoping to see some improvement over the next few weeks. Thanks ladies.
