First, I decide to not compete, because i have "Priorities" and they come first. Getting married, and building a house. I have been pretty down the past couple of days since i decided to not do the competition, but ill make it. Now, I have another problem that i cannot make go away for nothing: MY ACNE IS TERRIBLE! I have never seen anything like it before in my life. My fiance said she has never seen more bumps in her life. Wow, that makes me feel great. I am using Doxycycline 100mg pills every day, washing twice a day on my back, putting peroxide on my back, and also putting Brevoxyl 4 cream on my back too. I don't have any zits on my face, just back, shoulders, and chest now. I can't even show off the body i worked so hard to build! And what doesn't make any sense, is that my bulking cycle from October 1st to December 24th, I NEVER broke out at all. Was on Dbol, Aratest, & EQ. Now, im taking Aratest, Deca, Winny, & Clenbuterol. Could it be the deca? I don't know but if it does not get better in the next few days, im thinking of dropping something.....probably the deca. Im only in the beginning of week 4!  ------------------ EMAIL: [email protected]     | ||

I've done a few cycles of test and d-bol and never got acne. But the one time I tried winny and Eq, I got acne soooooo bad on my chest back and shoulders that I stopped taking the gear. I stayed with the acne for about 1-2 months after I stopped. I have no idea if it was the winny or the Eq. Alot of bros here take accutane for acne.... That might be something to think about.......

bro, perfect solution. Get B5 (panthothenic acid) and take 4-5grms/day. I know you have heard of guys taking it on the board, and if you havent tried it then, damn, get some, it works. | ||

Hey Hardcore, you are in the same situation I was in. However on top of the acne I had high bp as well as some bas stretch marks. Winny gave me the worst small red spots in the world, all over my face. B5 can work in some but had no impact on me at 5grams/day. I would continue with your cycle and forget about the acne. The good thing is that you know it will go away some weeks or months after your cycle is over. Peace ------------------ | ||

So you guys think it may be the winny or deca then? I don't think it could be the test, because its the only thing i have taken before, and it did not give me any acne whatsoever. So it has to be the deca and winny or at least ONE of them. Maybe i should lower my dosage of deca some? Im taking 600mg right now, and tonight i have to inject again, so i kinda need to know. And the winny im taking at 50mg per day. I am starting week 4 tonight, and i can already see some serious veins in my forearms, and calves. So should i lower the deca from 600 to maybe 400 or 300mg? ------------------ EMAIL: [email protected] | ||

Testosterone supplementation also has an effect on your sebaceous glands. Your sebaceous glands are located in your skin. Their main responsibility is to produce oil. Testosterone enlarges this gland and cause the production of excess body oil. This in turn leads to acne, which can occur on your back and chest. If you experience this side effect, it is very easy to reverse. Taking 2 showers a day is your first step. Next, tan once or twice a week. If it is summer, go to the beach and swim in the ocean every so often. If it is winter, take a bath using 2 cups of Epson salt and .5 to 1 cup of chlorine bleach every so often. | ||

It's the Deca. Nothing gives me Acne like Deca does. It's like 100 times worse for me than with Test/Dbol. Also Deca makes my hair fall out by the handfulls too. I've heard others say how easy Deca is as far as sides go but it's not true..... I won't use it anymore. | ||

DDT that is very interesting about the salt & bleach, and i think im gonna try it tonight after i get home from the gym. That sounds like a plan to me! And yeah, i decreased my deca dosage to 500mg from 600. Not that much of a drop, but if this shit doesn't go away in the next 2 weeks, im dropping deca for good and never using it again. I think i just need to get some GH this summer and be done with it. ------------------ EMAIL: [email protected] | ||

hardcore4evr, deca is the best steroid on the skin. if you replaced your natural test with deca your skin would actually improve. i bet with 600mg deca your skin would improve compared to natural testosterone. personally, if my acne got really bad my last resort would be about 400-600mg deca with just enough winny to prevent progesterone side effects. | ||

D1734, well then this doesn't make any sense to me at all. I started taking deca at 600mg for 3 straight weeks, and last night, starting week 4, i went down to 500mg. And, im taking winny at 50mg every day! What gives? I took a gram of Aratest during my bulking cycle from Oct 1 - Dec 24th, and I didn't break out at all. Then i took clomid for 2 weeks straight, and went back on the current cycle im doing now. Do you think that not waiting long enough between cycles could be the cause of this acne im getting? Im taking a fucking bath in that salt tonight, and seeing if that works. ------------------ EMAIL: [email protected] | ||

well if you went from a large cycle to off to another large cycle then the fluctuating hormones might be the cause. but yea deca turns to DHN instead of DHT which means it is very inactive in the skin and scalp. DHT on the other hand (which comes from testosterone) is 3 times more active in the scalp and skin than testosterone. | ||

Man, lets put it this way BigDog: if you were to have this many fucking bumps on you, then i don't think you would be complaining any less than I. Im not pissed at you, but you really don't understand. I have never had this fucking shit before, and i don't like it. Name someone who does. Its a pain in the ass, and it sucks to not be able to show off the fucking killer body you have worked so hard to obtain. This is what sucks, so yeah im bitching. ------------------ EMAIL: [email protected] | ||
