I am really sensitive and prone to breaking out. Just finished a 6 week cycle with some pro-hormones and they killed my face and really did not do that much good, so I'm looking into AS. From knowledge and experience what anabolics have the lowest occurrances of causing acne? I wanted to use sust, but I know that will kill my face. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Look like shit for 8 weeks, or look good for 10 years? Its a easy question for me. HIt the tanning beds, use a antibacterial soap. Shower right after you work out, min of 2 showers a day. If still bad use alchol whipes. The sust will really make you break out.. ------------------ IP: Logged |

get some alcohol and constantly wipe down with it. or those oxy pads or something you can use every few hours. it will keep the oil from getting too heavy on your skin. drink tons of water, that helps me. couple of showers a day and you should be "alright". IP: Logged |

Deca is a great steroid for all around gains and it is low androgenic...which means it is least likely to cause acne. So is primo and eq. Definately shower 2 times a day and go to the tanning bed. Also get some oxy. ------------------ IP: Logged |

take your lumps with the acne , get lots of sun , use a soap called PANOXIL 10 (youll need a presciption but any doc will give it to ya)...then when youre done with your cycle...go get some accutaine IP: Logged |

Steroids cause "cystic acne"......accutane will clear it up.....see your Dr........ The alcohol will take the oil off...but dries the skin...I know of women who thought this was the best way to prevent breakouts...and now down the road you can tell they looked more aged.....your skin is the same as a leather......you have to moisturize it to keep it soft....you would never poor alcohol on your leather jacket or a horse's saddle......Moisturize with eucerin cream (it is the best and can buy it at a drug store...

If you are using orals you cannot get acutane because of the blood tests. IP: Logged |

Hey, thanks for the suggestions guys. I tan alot to help my face and get darker and I have been considering Deca and primo. My shit luck is that I have used Accutane Twice! Took accutane, took pro-hormones, messed up my face, so on and so forth. I'm not going to mess with the accutane again, b/c it hurt my joints last time. Thanks for the advice, maybe I will just have to deal with it! IP: Logged |

I am taking Tetracycline (antibiotic prescribe by my dermatol) ...just started this week and it appears to be working. Accutane is harsh but the best and acne will never come back. IP: Logged |

Unfortunately, taken accutane twice and it has come back b/c of pro-hormones, and currently I'm taking tetracyclines, brevoxyl face wash and clindamycin face wipes for the last 3 weeks and my face is finally starting to slowly respond, slowly. sucks IP: Logged |

I gained about 10 lbs on winny and didn't have any acne problems.Alot of people don't gain much on winstrol so i'd say deca would probably be best ------------------ IP: Logged |

Hey bro use Gold Dial and shower at least twice a day. Change your pillow case and sheets often. I also tanned and ate a lot of greens. I was told it would help and I only got a few small zits my entire cycle. Hope this helps. LAter, Green IP: Logged |

nothing short of accutane works for me...on a cutting cycle where I do less than 500mg of a base test (usually test enth.) and deca/dyna/or primo I get no acne...on 750mg of test or more nothing works 100%...at least for me-x IP: Logged |

I suggest swimming!!!! Sounds stupid....but in a pool that has a high concentration of chlorine....dries the skin out very well, also swimming is a good muscle toner...I suggest about 10-20 mins a day right after workout depending on the concentration of chlorine. ------------------ IP: Logged |

When i went on test my face actually cleared up, but i noticed a little getting on my chest but i put that cream shit on and it took it away before it really started. What should you use when a lot of other acne shit makes your face dry? IP: Logged |
