Default Minocycline and the pill???

Hi everyone...

I'm new. I've had ovarian cysts since I was 12, I'm now 29 and my doc has finally decided to find out whats wrong with me. I have acne that started 5 years ago, have been on accutane, and could grow sideburns to rival Elvis'.

My question to ya'll is this. I was on Diane-35, which was great for my skin, but I gained almost 40 pounds (my doc had me taking it continuously for 4 years, no period breaks). So I heard that if you lose weight the symptoms get better, but I couldn't lose on Diane. So my doc put me on Marvelon and Minocycline. But I have heard that the antibiotic will cancel out the pill. Have any of you had experience with this?? Has anyone taken both antibiotics and the pill without problems??

Thanks for reading this, and I'm so happy to find a board about all these issues..
