After a 12 wk cycle of tes e and EQ, acne stared on delts and back... Thought it was normal...until it continues and doesn't clear up and now I'm 3 months out from my pct and nothing has gotten better? Why is that and what can I do?

Did you get bloodwork done? What is your estrogen level? YOu need to get post PCT bloods anyway so go to privatemdlabs and get them done

estradiol 16.8. Normal

What was your LH? DId you use HCG on cycle or PCT? EPIDUO is a new topical prescription medicine for Acne that just came out and work's great.

LH was 3.9 lower end of normal range.

Used HcG during cycle
 
took me 5 months to clear up and I still had a couple. Just the name of the game. Shower twice a day and get a good cleaner, buy a back scrubber to reach your back.

do you get acne ever cycle? Is it dose dependent or do you only get it at higher doseages?

How old are you? You might try HCG blast and low dose clomid to get test higher. 1500iu EOD and clomid 25mg per day for 3 weeks
 
Muscle Gelz Transdermals

Im 26 and could be a good idea. I haven't pinned in a long time. Was thinking to star in a week. That ok

you can try some natural remedies or go with something hard like accutane

Accutane - iSteroids.com
 
i would try other means before accutane, accutane is going to dry out your skin so much, and it is also hard on your live. I mean AAS is also hard, but if something else works then try that first. I would use a prescribed topical before accutane.
 
Welcome to te club... Not a club I wanted to be in if I'm honest if its something to do with your hormone or it releated to something you find in your blood work.. Eg. This was too low and it was causing it ect then please let me know..

Get some b5 shower 2-3 times a day never wear he same tshirt twice, change ur sheets alot. go ur doc get sumthing on prescription.

I'm using doxycycline supposed to take one 50mg a day doesn't do nothing for me I'm taking 200mh a day and its working nicely.

I had good skin untill I started taking gear now I've had spots ever sinse (minor bacne) sometimes I can get them down to almost nothing atall..

Welcome to the dark side haha ur fucked now!!!

thanks for the intro...I think
 
If you want to try doxycycline you can order it online from pet stores.Just Google it.Its the same and no need to go to doctor. I have been on 200mg a day for about 2 week and my acne is 80 percent gone.
 
Lol like I said bro I never had any spots on my back in my life b4 I touched gear and no1 in my family EVER had acne so I'm not pre despised to this shit!..


Why pay more for doxycycline o line when your doc can put ya in a script for cheap? Doesn't make sense to me and u know its legit. Never know what ur getting from these websites...

The doxycycline I received is made by westward pharmaceutical. I cost under 30.00 for 100 100mg tabs.I know exactly what I'm using.

Never heard of what your taking ma man... Ask for doxycycline and ask for it in repeat then take same dose as me 2x 50mg in morning and same before bed...

They originally gave me tetracycline I think it would leave a nasty tatse and made mine worse I would never touch it again doxy worked tho only at these doses. 50mg a day is weak!


Should notice it working in about 2 months taking it maybe before bet of luck.

Could be dose related -- a good dose is 200mg/day in my experience, where lesser dosages can just feel like a placebo. But... long-term minocycline use will very likely gray your teeth (slow process, long time till you notice) and might give you "perma-bruises" where a normal bruise from a minor bump just doesn't go away and remains dark for a year or longer.

Doxycycline is the other standard option but it's typically a little weaker in effect, makes you more susceptible to sun damage, and may make you nauseous if you take it on an empty stomach (easy thing to forget about).

Accutane is much stronger than either of those but then there's a whole list of possible (mostly unlikely) side effects along with liver stress. Oh, and it makes monster babies so don't get pregnant.

thanks for the info and advice, will defo up the dose (originally on 100mg a day) and try something else if no joy.

Seeing a dermatologist, you think I have a chance by just asking?
 
If you know what you want and the details of the meds it definitely helps, otherwise the derm will likely put you in guinea pig status with disappointing ramp-up on weak shit (e.g. tetracycline, or topicals like erythomycin, Retin-A, Differin, and related junk). Bear in mind that Accutane is used as a last resort, requires iPledge FDA rigamarole and a monthly blood test... a bitch.
 
I was doing 1/4 bottle of B5/pantothenic acid daily, it helps but for severe pizza acne - you need more. Depending how bad you are high B5 could help, especially that far out of cycle. You NEED to stay off gear while doing it.

Accutane is serious stuff, but probably not so bad to manage at 20mg a day if you keep your liver clean of everything else. My eyes, skin, and everything else that you forget you need "moisture" for dried out to the point I bled from some areas, not cool. But it works like a mofo, your liver values will go up significantly (likely) at doses of 60mg+. I briefly went up to 100 or 120mg (I forget) and discovered for myself during a blood test, I was about 25% over normal and I could actually feel the tingles (severe warning sign).

Be cautious, try heavy B5 for 2 weeks first and see if its worth continuing. If you scrub your body don't make yourself bleed (common sense right?)
 
i had acne for almost half a year after my test e/eq/dbol cycle, finally went away. But mine was never anything too alarming just maybe 1 to 2 pimples on the delt and a few on the upper back and neck area. and both my lipid and my test blood work was normal after my pct for that cycle fyi.
 
I have a guy who uses Topical resveratrol (sustain alpha) and claims it clear his complexion rapidly.

Not exactly sure of the mechanism of action but could anti inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties

This article was pretty cool -- Topical resveratrol for acne
