Acne?

I've been using test now for a month or so, run out just prior to xmas and am awaiting a new lot along with some shots of deca as well, whilst on this cycle I had little or no acne at all since doing the last shot I've had a bit of an out break of acne, my GP has given me so anti biotics to clear it up and told me to keep clear of the gear (which I dont want to do), is there anything I can take to stop the acne from coming back once I stop the cycle? As a friend of mine told me test & sust seem to be the biggest causes of acne whilst doing steroids, he told me to do primo instead of those and use something else like deca with it.
Any info would be great.
Thanks

You didn't have all your test on hand when you started the cycle?

I buy it as and when I need it, with the Xmas post being totally f***** up here in the UK it's taking a lot longer to get to me, usually when I ship the money to my source I have the gear back in approx 2 days, just forgot that the Xmas post is shit

Primo stacked with deca? Stupid.

Antibiotics are going to be better than other meds for stopping acne, accutane hits the liver and your cholesterol profile.

Thanks for the info Mudge, what should I be looking to stack Primo with?

Get some Pantothenic Acid(B5). That will help with the acne.

Majority of the time acne is caused by unstable blood hormone levels. What does your cycle look like, when do you inject?

My cycle is Test & Deca, a shot every other day, I tend to inject just before I go to the gym in the mornings, say around 8am (every other day)

That's what I read. Thought that raised testosterone levels stimulated the sebum producing cells hence releasing more sebum that blocks pores etc causing the white or red spots. The same article said new treatments like;

"rubbing the skin with benzyl peroxide,tretinoin (Retin-A), or antibiotics and oral antibiotics, isotertinoin and hormones." and "typically includes taking 1.5 to 2 grams a day of oral antibiotics until there are no more pimples, then tapering off to 500 milligrams per day if the skin remains clear. Topical skin treatments continue for two months after the acne has cleared up".

I don't even do gear, yet i struggle to keep my shoulders clear. Don't know if any of the above is useful as I don't have experience with any of the above, could be well in over my head, but hey, i'm new.

I don't know if you have 'Hibiscrub' ( Chlorhexidine gluconate ) over there in the US, but my doctor reccommended that through my teen years, it's easily available from pharmacies etc. It's an anti-microbial wash that doctors and vets use etc before surgery. Seems to do the trick for me.

Was supposed to have quoted ST240, but mine didn't come up in a decent grey box, so soz if it looks like I'm trying to pass it off as my own.

Yes its the elevated test levels that produce acne. Being up and down doesn't mean much except that you may get acne when you have high test levels.

just trying to find the root cause of all the acne from my last cycle...could have been either the clomid or test.....

primo is a waste of money for the effects that you get off it. the only thing primo is good for would be a cutting cycle with test prop and winny or masteron. primo is very mild, especially when compared to deca or EQ so to get a decent anabolic effect IMO anything less than 600 mg/wk is pointess.
