Has anyone found that our break out on estrace? I researched the side effects and I don't see it as one, but since I've taken it my face, chest and neck have broken out. Anyone else experience this? What are some side effects you've experienced?

    I am pretty lucky and don't tend to break out much at all - but I did get a few extra hormone-type blemishes at the beginning of the estrace.
