Does gear quality affect acne?

[djquirk]

So my first couple of cycles were with tigerblood gear and didnt really have much acne. My last couple of cycles were with RNM gear I got right before he was ran out of here. Since I've been using it my acne has been out of control. Just wondering if maybe the quality has any effect on how much acne it causes.

..i mean..probably idk

Gear is oil and hormones. What causes most acne? Oily skin and hormones.

Honestly not gonna lie, I do not know the answer to your question. But I am curious as well. I have heard that the quality of the gear can play effect such as "dirty" (low quality) raws etc. And then I have heard that some people just react differently at differently times or how potent the compound is. I do believe a lot goes into play, could be hormone levels, food you eat, sweat, could be tolerance to the substance, etc..
I have used some brands that I broke out a lot and then ran a different brands and it was not nearly as bad. I will say tho the best gains I ever had was on the gear that made me break out sooo really it just makes me think. But like I said, I will not act like I know, cuz truthfully I have no idea.

Unsteady hormone levels are the main cause of acne IMO

I highly, highly doubt it. The oil you inject is not going to end up at your skin and test E is test E.

No, the quality of a drug will not effect the magnitude of acne. Acne is a direct result of androgen receptor stimulation in the sebaceous glands. The dose could be different though, or another compound used in its place. That is possible with UG

Acne is a bacterial infection. Oils in the skin are food for acne.

Just go to your doc and get a $9 prescription.

What medication are you referring to?

 

[keith1569]

honestly if your acne is causing u trouble and antibiotics and topics r not working..hope on low dose accutane for 6 months..i ran 20mg a day for that period of time and the only thing affected was my hdl went from 40 to 33..now i dont have any acne problems..wish i had done that before becuase now i still have pretty bad acne scars from tren..they r starting to fade though...heh

 

[Thresh]

What medication are you referring to?

Antibiotics. Any doctor will write you a proper script. If that doesn't work accutane may be the answer, but it's a last resort.

Oh mate antibiotics come on, this is not going to help with acne, as this side effect is usually linked to androgenic stimulation of the sebaceous glands.

If your primary concern are androgenic side effects (acne/hair loss) you are looking at some of the milder (arguably correct) compounds like primobolan and oxandrolone are common, nandrolone maybe. But there are always other considerations; lipids, libido.. for example. Always some tradeoff.

I remember some prop I use to get from a specific source.
Strong shit.
It used to give me the worst just huge black cystic acne.

I ran a bunch of other cycles of prop where this did not happen. Acne, sure, but nothing like that stuff.
So, I think quality of raw materials can contribute to acne because your maybe sweating out different compounds along with the excessive oil production. Not 100% sure but I do know that 1 prop gave me worse and different acne than another. I can only attribute this to quality of raw materials. If your raw material is 95%....WTF is the 5%. Who knows

 

[Goldenera]

Some gear does it more to me then others that's for sure. I'm sure it's a combo of Raws and receptors like grozny said.

I find water , pro active, frequent showers all help to a degree.

black lion research makes a interesting acne treatment that treats it from the inside not a topical.
I was going to try it my next cycle. It's $32. Cheap enough for me to try once! Acnedren

[brundel]

I wasnt gonna plug it but yeah, Acnidren works very well for on cycle acne.
It reduces oil production and its pretty cheap.

euroking used to sell something called "bodybuilder's bodywash" that worked pretty well for me, don't think they're affiliated anymore but you can still get it

other than that, get some sun/uv. Bathe regularly. Treat problem areas with antibacterial dishsoap. Scrub/exfoliate. If all else fails antibiotic creams work really well

 

[Buckeye Fan]

Check your estrogen. When mine is high I break out bad

I bought two bottles of this stuff and immediately broke out worse. It was wierd. I'd stop using it and the bumps would go away, then try it again and they would come back. This may just be my experience with it since digi had good results.

 

[delcapone]

Thats what I was thinking Estrogen and dosage, great question tho. same thing is happening to my nephew. no acne, switch labs now his back is breakin out.

 

[suprfast]

Personal experience. test e gave me bad acme pinning large amounts twice per week. Went over to test prop and tren with zero acne.

Maybe frequency and quantity plays a huge role.

^ This, and if u have a dirty gear u will more likely have an abscess for the rest its story of sebaceous glands that is regulated by the testo

I also think if you are prone to Acne (had it growing up) is a factor in having bad break outs. I do also believe the quality of gear, type of oil, what %'s the product was made with etc... I think it's on the case to case basis , everyone's body is set different to react different to certain things and different blends

 

[skinnyguy180]

I had the same problem I am sure mine is estrogen related. make sure your on a legit AI. And then say fuck it if it bothers you a lot, I know no one wants to take acutane (including myself) but it WORKS and is the only thing that is garunteed to work. I have terrible acne I just deal with it right now and do not touch it. No popping nothing but washing twice a day and sun and pools work great to get it gone with out scarring yourself. So basically winter sucks for me. I am still weighing acutane as a possibility for me. What bothers me is the deep sists that I can get. Those I have to stick a syringe in to drain

P.s. Sorry about that acne man hope it gets better. I know it sucks, all you want to do is take off your shirt and show your hard work. Instead you have red mounds stealing the focus.
