Tri-sprintec Causing my Chin Acne?

I have been on tri-sprintec birth control for 8+ years. I seemed to get a zit here and there on the side of my chin around my period, but for the past 6-8 months I seem to have constant breakouts mainly on the sides of my chin. It is all the time, not just around my period. The right side is worse than the left. The rest of my skin is clear. I have tried antibiotics, Retin-A, changing all my face products, serums, facials and even a juice cleanse. My diet is well balanced, I exercise, sleep 7-9 hours a night, wash my face, use mineral makeup, change my pillow case, wash cloth and even my toothpaste. I HAVE TRIED IT ALL.. accept, I am still on the pill, can that actually be causing my issues? I am now 30 and I am assuming my hormones levels have changed since I started the pill. Anyone experience this? Any advice? I was contemplating going off the pill and seeing what happens...I am getting married in May and really would love clear skin.
