What Causes Itchy Rashes All Over Body After Taking Birth Control Injection?

Hi Doctors.. I need an input from a Dermatologist.. I ve recently changed recently changed oral contraceptives from Ginette 35 to an injection.. It is my 6month on the injection, the injection for 2 months, however ive noticed over the months that my skin has a very bad rash that is itching all over my body but severe on the face.. Could this be caused by the injection? The time i was on Ginette 35 i never had problem with the skin rash.... Do i go and consult a dermatologist? or should i stop using the injection completely. Thank you
