Got some bad cystic acne on jawline from tren.. just my jawline.
Thinking about running 20 mg of accutane a day to rid of it....

I actually heard the lower the test dose the worse the acne. There was a study done on 2 large groups of people. One group was taking 300mg per week for I think 12 or 20 weeks. The other group was taking 600mg same duration.
The results for side effects were the 300mg group had MUCH more acne cases. The 600mg group had few reports of acne.
If I find the study I'll post a link
I actually read that study as well. There was only 12 people in each group, hardly enough to come up with any concrete facts. The study did not mention anythng about patients prior disposition to estro related sides. The fact that more of the patients in the 300mg group reported more cases of acne could have simply been a coincidence. Run that same study with 100 men in each group and youll get a better answer.
Oh thanks I couldn't remember the details.
At least for me test doesn't cause acne. Maybe at very low doses but even then its not bad. Maybe it just does depend on genetics and hygeine
That study could have been spot on. I just think the sample size was too small to come to an accurate conclusion about their estro related issues. One thing it definitely did prove was that the group in the 600mg range benefited more than any other group in terms of LBM and strength.
pct is the worst lol. hormones all unbalanced. but you gotta remember genetics play a role in acne too.
Heh the only time I get regular acne is when I'm off cycle =P
If your running low dose of test and you've got the right doses of aromasin/adex and caber/prami I can't imagine it giving you acne.. I just get acne when one of those is off.. usually its the first sign i get when my AI is bunk if I start breaking out on cycle
bro lemme share you some bitch tips my sister gave me growing up.
these three things when put on a pimple will work wonders on it reducing size, redness, and going away.
1) toothpaste. i dont know what that works, but it does.
2) baby powder. pop the pimple so the pore is open and some oil is coming out. baby powder on it, what it does is absorb the moisture of the oils drying it out, and helps the irritation.
3) any NSAID liquid gel (ibuprofen etc). Cut the liquid gel cap and dab some of the gel onto the pimple. The anti inflammatory properties help reduces redness and irritation.
dont trust me, trust a female who's gone through puberty.
didnt wanna leave you hanging on just taking my word as to why toothpaste might work.
lil webmd for ya
"Toothpaste does more than help you achieve a winning smile. When dabbed on a pimple, toothpaste can get rid of it by morning. "It is drying and basically works like a clay mask," Kunin says. "It dehydrates the pimple and absorbs the oil," she says. Toothpaste works best on a pimple that has come to a head - like a whitehead, Kunin adds. "But be careful not to use a whitening toothpaste because they tend to have high levels of hydrogen peroxide that may irritate or burn the skin," she says. "If you are going to try it, use a white paste -- not a gel -- and skip this remedy if you have sensitive skin because it will be too irritating."

I have seen some use the potato slice method on there faces and even on one occasion taping a thin slice of potato on a large zit or boil overnight.

tanning helps
Tren and deca are the only steroids that gives me some acne. I have 2 spots on my neck but they are really small like size of a pentip.
Maybe I'm just lucky idk. But When I increase my prami dose and especially my AI dose it goes away.
x2 +1
yup acne aint fun lol. test alone is fucking boss
What did you run as your prolactin inhibitor? What did you run your test dose at?
AnonThats what I'm saying.
Low test + Estrogen/Prolactin under control = Low tren sides.
Im on 500mg tren a week and my skin is flawless and I have a history of acne on and off cycle.
Same exact think here bro. Accutane helped me.still getting little acne on jawline but not like before.
