Acne

I finished PCT 3wks ago after a 12wk Test E cycle @ 500mg a wk split doses. And I am having a hell of a time with acne on my back. Been using clean and clear 2x daily also using alcohol pads to try and dry it out. Is there a pill I can take for my next cycle to keep the acne down? Wasn't that bad on cycle but now it is getting worse (good thing it's winter) any help would be great.

Have never tanned before, but looks like the gym is gonna be getting a little more cash from me. How long should I be in the tanning bed for the first couple times. Don't want to fry in there. Thanks for the input
CleyonMy gym started me out at 5min for the first time, 7min the second, third, and fourth times, and then I did 10min from there on out. I didn't want to go to the 15min "shoe leather" mode.
Nizoral helped me a ton and its pretty cheap. I noticed if I sit in the hot tub and sauna It helps a lot as well the chlorine helps thats just my remedy though.
That works got one in the backyard. Might as well try all these remedys. Thanks.
doxycycline didn't work for me, amoxicillin didn't work, i tried basically every single suggested solution on these boards and nothing was working for the back acne that showed up in the 8th week of my first cycle. I bought some accutane online and that stuff is clearing me up nicely. Sides are nothing to complain about, dry skin (especially on my face) and dry lips. OF COURSE, your mileage may vary. There are some pretty horrific, albeit very rare, side effects that a tiny percentage of people get. research research research. if nothing else works, try accutane. Plus, i promise that if you go to a derm and they see a battle field on your back, the first thing they're going to want to do is put you on accutane. They might go with an antibiotic first, like doxy (which you can buy online super easy, search for fish doxycyline, it's the same shit as human just labelled for marine life), but eventually they're going to prescribe accutane. Also, accutane is super super expensive if you go the pharmacy route. For reasons i won't go into here, my insurance won't cover acne meds, the out of pocket expense for 80mg/day of generic accutane without insurance is 1100/month. I went with the online solution and ended up paying about 100/month for med.
1100? Damn that's messed up. Gonna wait and see if between the tanning and the shampoo work first. Thanks for the heads up. Didn't think an anti biotic would fight acne. Good looking out bro thanks.
AnonDoxycycline is commonly prescribed to help combat acne.
Accutane is a last resort, the sides are MISERABLE and it has some SERIOUS potential life long sides.
I've been through all the meds. I have bad acne. Hell, my parents met in a dermatologist office, acne runs in my family. Ive done all the acne drugs including accutane. Heres what I would suggest:
Benzoyl Peroxide 10% for body
Benzoyl Peroxide 5% for face
Shower twice a day (AM/PM)
Keep using the pads.
DONT POP OR PICK AT YOUR ACNE.
If you have access to a sauna, use it.
If you have access to tanning beds, use it.
Thanks bro, gonna start hitting the tanning bed tomorrow. Shit if it helps with the acne I'm down plus i will look a lot better (white as a ghost lol). Thanks for the info bro +1
Clomed is the only thing that makes me break out. theres just nothing I can do i've tried everything. I never break out on cycle. But PCT kills my back and back of neck pimples everywhere.
Damn didn't even think about that. I know it gave me massive headaches for the first 2 weeks. Thanks bro.
