Hey dudes is it common to get acne on the face when injecting test. I had acne real bad when I was younger and still have a pimple every now and then.

I was wondering would the test take me back to my teenage years?

accutane does require a script...and it works...great!!! However it dries out your skin to the point of weakness...your skin will rip and tear real easy while on it...your lips will always be chapped...it has been two years since I used it my skin is still dry and my lips still are chapped...sometimes this side-effect last indefinately...-x

severe sides are very rare...just chapped lips are very common...never noticed any hairloss or anything...that is quite uncommon...does require a script and is expensive without insurance...not as hard on liver as everyone says...don't drink though...it is the only possible permament cure though...all the other stuff doesn't have much of an effect when use is ceased...i personally wouldn't bother with other shit...might be hard to get doc to get script...switch docs if you think its bad...and tell em youre worried about scarring from your acne...they don't want to be responsible for that...

i used sawpawmetto that helps keeping your face from getting real oily, also use alcohol on your face about 2-3 times a day

Accutane is the best. I used to have acne real bad too, nothing else worked for me except accutance. The side effects cal said are true. I got chapped lips like a mf. I carried around some chap stick all the time when i was on it. Skin on your face peels too. After i finished all the side effects went away including the acne. I'll get a pimple here and there once in a while.....nothing compared to before.

Has anyone done accutane treatment and then a cycle afterwards? Did accutane still prevent acne while on a cycle?

yo my man...I did my second cycle following accutane...it was test ethnate at 500mg week for 12 weeks with 200mg of primo thrown in weeks 6-12...I got absolutely no acne...not even one pimple...two years later I'm on the same cycle and I'm breaking out mildly...so, at least I feel it works very very well-x

Accutane IS hard on the liver. Your Doc will check your blood several times during treatment and I wouldn't recommend while on a cycle because of the liver.

if you use it on a cycle you can literally take one tab every 2nd or 3rd day...I just bought two boxes for $55...this test, sus cycle is hitting my skin harder than I'd like...my friend has been using one tab every fourth day and his has cleared up after only three weeks...I don't think that few tabs will cause and excessive damage to the liver...I hate breaking out in the summer but I love doing a cycle in the summer...I'll let you guys know how a tab every third day works for me-x

where did you get accutane without a script, off the internet? I wouldn't mind having some accutane if it's easy to get a hold of.

yup the good 'ole internet...You can find it in some of the mail order houses...I've seen it between 35-60 bucks a box however...still that's cheaper than the U.S. that shit is expensive!!! (w/o insurance)

Keep your face clean...With test your going through puberty all over again...If it was a problem the first time, expect it to be at least a slight problem now...I have heard of people using retin-a..But to each his own..

that's a hell of a hard question to answer...what are you using it for roid acne...the doctors usually perscribe two tabs a day (80mg) for 3-6 months depending on how bad the acne is...if you are only using it for post cycle acne try one a day until you clear up...if you use it during a cycle try one every third day...and keep your skin moisturized while your on it...-x

Cystic acne as a result of Anabolic Steroids are different than acne experienced by adolecents or adults with acne. Any flair up will dissapear once exogenous testosterone injections cease.
Acutane prescribed by doctors. It is considered a "treatment" because it requires about 5 weeks to completly eradicate sebacious fluid from being produced from the gland. Thusly, once the sebacious glands cease to produce oil, bacteria ceases to develope around the oil clogged pores.
Take note however, once this procedure is finalized there is no going back, perpetual dry skin "ashyness" is a result.
