I got my doc to prescribe me some stuff called Doxycycline and Retin A I've been on it for less than a week and I am totally clear. I've always had bad skin and the gear didn't help but this shit cleared it right the fuck up. ------------------     | ||

Bro, Ask your doc about Differin (aldapalene?) gel. I always had bad acne on my face and once I started using the Differin, it went away. In fact, after about 3-4 months of twice daily treatment I didn't need to use it anymore except to dry up the odd pimple that happened to spring up. Nothing gets rid of that post-cycle backne, though. Just gotta keep showering all the time and let it run it's course. LOOMZ | ||

I use Accutane. I don't want to rub shit all over my face everyday. And Doxycycline, Tetracycline, and Minocycline set up free radicals in your body. Thus, they take away from your gains. Just don't use the Accutane everyday. I take 1 40mg Gelcap every 3 days and my skin looks like that of 18y/o female model. Now, if you take it everyday, your face will peel off, more than once! Not to mention, all the skin on your body will become dry and flaky. Every 3 days, good luck. Tripp ------------------ | ||

quote: How bad was your acne before you started the meds? Before I did my first cycle I never even once had a pimple on my back. Now, even after I have been off for what seems like forever, I still have acne on my back. I have tried Retin-A and it didn't do jack shit, maybe even made it worse. I want to go to the derm but I just now he is going to ask if I have been using anabolics. What do you say when they ask? -Bri | ||

Tripp---I am with u on the accutane. Itried everything and nothin holds a candle to accutane IMO. u are exactly right about your skin peeling off. But i took 1 pill a day everyday. Worked just fine and my skin really didnt peel. | ||
