![]() ![]() ![]() I finished a cycle about a month and a half ago. I finished off with clomid. I didn't break out during my cycle but now it's getting pretty bad on my chest. I'm going to a dermatologist next week and was hoping you guys could give me advice on what to ask the dermatologist for. Thanks IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() hey bro, just stay away from accutane, it is very very toxic on the liver. i took years ago way b/f roids but while on it i had to have 2 blood test a month to check for liver levels. just wanted to inform you incase the doc recommends accutane(he wont know if you just did a cycle,....liver already stressed!) Tetycycaline(Spelling) is good, not harsh on the liver, i believe it is actually a antibiotic, also a topical like retin a, but the retin a doesnt work as well on the bad acne. hope this helps bro, dont forget about a sh#t load of water and shower right after working out.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I have great news for you! Unless your acne is, like, totally out of control, there are some great new products you can get at any chain drugstore that will TOTALLY WIPE OUT ACNE ON YOUR FACE AND BODY It's the stuff Jennifer Love Hewitt hawks on TV: Neutrogena Body Clear Body Wash Or: Saint Ives Clear Pore Body Wash These products are great! You can use them everywhere (so you don't need a million products anymore), but you must give them a week to feel their full effects. I love using them on my hair (the wash as a shampoo and the lotion as a styling aid) because they rid your hair of build-up and unclog follicles that, if kept plugged up, MAY lead to baldness. If you find that you're getting dry in spots, don't stop using the products. Just smear the slightest bit of vaseline or flax oil on those particular spots. Finally, if you don't like these products, keep in mind that their main ingredient is salicyclic acid. So your other options are to: Use similar products that contain alpha and/or beta hyroxy acids instead (Saint Ives has lots of these, they're top-quality, and they're cheap); OR ... Use a soap that contains 2% to 10% precipitated sulfur all over your hair, face, and body. You may want to do this just once a week and use the Neutrogena stuff otherwise, like I do, because the sulfur wipes out your skin's natural moisture along with zits ... and it doesn't smell too good, either. Does this help? [This message has been edited by Ed O. Puss-Rexx (edited May 17, 2000).] IP: Logged |
