Acne long after cycle
ad
A few years ago after about my third cycle I got acne real bad on chest and back. First two cycles I never got any. Well on the third cycle I got it and it never went away. And now I am on like year 2 of back and chest acne I can't get rid of. HAs this happened to anyone and can I get rid of it naturally for good with out harsh drugs? Let me know cause this sucks. No more shirtless or even tank tops cause its so bad. Haven't had this since my early twenties.

Could try a loofah on a stick with sulfer soap. I had to use sulfer soap once, Trt if your doc will treat you for it isn't all bad. Once a week shot is walk in the park and you'll most likely keep gains from cycles better
Well gentlemen I ask again. now that I did my blood work does anyone have advise on getting my hormones back on track.
Very seldom have I ever got acne on cycle... even at high doses. Always wondered why, and I wonder if my age isnt the reason.
well dang you old bastard,how you all been. I hope well. I just found out my T hasn't gotten back to normal and Estro is high. Trying to figure out why and how to get it back on track. Did not get acne 1st or second cycle but now I got it and can't get rid of it.
Joe, what did your blood work say?
Ok got blood work back today. Sure enough, its high estro.
Estrogen, Total, Serum 218.1 H Should be between 60-190
Test a very low 192 used to be at 352
So now hat do I do .How do I get it back to normal and naturally raise my test back up? He wanted to putme on TRT and I said No. I do not want to commit to life on TRT.
Ok you all. Time to help a brother out>
Bro I just looked at your stats and pics. Are those pics present? Is that the acne you are posting about that is 3 years after a cycle?!?!?!
I would strongly suggest going to a dermatologist after getting blood tests. Maybe it is my screen, but they looked rather large and a good amount.
I have had break-outs over the 20 yrs of AAS but nothing like that and it was a VERY brief period. Everyone is different, but I would look into this not just rely on posts from a board.
In my humble opinion, I am going to say I am pretty sure the cycle has nothing to do with the current situation of acne. If I am reading this correctly yo are saying it has been years and you have only done 3 cycles ever? Correct?
Best advice I would think is get blood work. Check Est/Test levels & look at diet as well as mentioned and current medications for related acne sides.
Let us know what you find out. Best of luck my brother..
i just got blood drawn fri. i will let you alll know once i get results back. i am sure its from the cycles. that pic is old but that different from this. its bad. i did not get it first cycle and then swithed brands and did the same cycle and got it bad and have had it since. I do not take medicataions at all. I am hoping the results of the tests tell me what the culprit is and I can go from there. I will let you all know once they get in. thanks
I had the same issue as yourself, I taken anti biotic, which helped but not majorly, but I think it is mostly related to your hormones, taking vitamin b6 at a slightly higher dose helped me keep my hormones in balance , and really helped me a lot with acne.
Your estrogen could be to high also...Bloodworks will tell.
Please fill in your stats! (It really does help other men who have similar circumstances.)
Also, what's your AAS history besides those three blasts? Are you on TRT now? Do you take any medications on a regular basis? Do you currently train?
The fellas below are gonna have you on the right path, starting with GET YOUR BLOOD WORK DONE!
Lastly, there are several instances where acne can be effected by diet. Sometimes, meat is the culprit. Other times, processed food is the bad guy. Yup, that means you might have to give up steaks and pizza, but fuck it if it works.
Keep us posted, Joe. Work with us and we'll do our best to get you sorted out.
Get blood work. Im willing to bet your estro is the culprit
I have done blood work. Do you think you can now help me get my hormones back on track?
I will be getting blood work done. What all should I ask for and if that is the culprit what could be done then?
what did you run during your last Cycle?
when was the last time you got a blood panel done? what were the results?
also, you need to update your stats
last cycle was Test E 500 ew split + 4 weeks var 60 per day.
last done blood before cycle test was at 250 range that was around april this year.. year prior was at 350.
45 yo 5.10
235. train 3 to 4 times a week. Jui jitsu and kickboxing.
I take no meds, drink no soda or alcohol not a lot of processed foods.
I considered TRT but didn't want to commit to life I guess.
