Test= Acne.. The TRUTH

Sup Fellas.. I was about to start my Test E/ Tbol Cycle until I started reading and hearing from everybody that ACNE will FOR SURE get crazy on cycle b/c of the test. I was expecting some acne, but if its almost 100% sure that I will break out very bad I am defintely thinking about dropping the test.. Is this true? Anybody taken test and didnt really notice bad acne? I am more worried about face acne but still dont want bacne or acne on shoulders. I know everyone says B5 and dawn will help take it away but I still dont want to expeirience THE CRAZY ACNE i have been hearing about..

i go to a local pharmacy they all have!!!!!! always wash your skin! if you want as well take proscar 1mg dialy its an anti dht it stops dht convers and the sebacous gland will not grow and the acne will be much less and at the same time you will save your hair aswell!!!!!! but never take proscar with deca, take it only with test!!

I dont see any point in dropping the test...The acne is caused from shifting hormone levels, not just from one substance. As long as you have a good regimen for treating your skin while on cycle and post cycle, I dont see it being a huge problem. If you're prone to it you may experience it a little more severe than others, if not, it may be mild. No one can say for sure as with all things it affects everyone differently.The decision really comes down to a personal choice of wether or not, 20 or so pounds, is worth a few months of acne.

ive never had a problem with acne in my life. i have a bit right now but it is definitly worth the results im getting on the test. most of my acne is on my back, and i have had i zit on my face in the last 9 weeks. the acne im getting is not to bad at all, i have no problem taking off my shirt in public. my friend on the other hand has huge looking boils on his back. i started tanning a week ago and it is already starting to clear up. dude take the test its worth it.

i usually run 15 week cycles and it usuall flares up about week 10 or so and stays for 6-8 weeks but as flyhalf said test+acne= worth the gains for me anyway

what you guys are saying makes sense.. Im almost sure I will include the test, just hope the acne doesnt get to wild.. I dont mind a few zits on my back, but i dont want to have a good body and then cant take off my shirt.. doesnt make sense to me.. I guess I will wait and see

first off, dont listen to this guy. He just turned 18, done 4 bad cycles so no wonder he has terrible acne b/c he is still in puberty. He doesnt listen either. He also doesnt believe he can grow without the help of steroids, but thats another subject

Anyway, everybody reacts differently to steroid in regards to acne. I ran 750mg of test last cycle along w/ 75mg tren every day and I got no acne at all. In fact I have never gotten any acne while on cycle. I had bad acne as a teenager too. I do tend to get a little bit of acne during PCT, but nothing terrible. Just make sure you keep your skin clean. Just remember everybody is different.

I have taken a gram of test and 680mg of tren e... did not get acne until I dropped the tren... First time ever getting alot of acne on shoulders. Every other cycle has only been the one big one here or there... In retrospect the acne started as tren levels were waining...

Yea i think test cured my freakin mild acne problem...Only thing i got was a little bumps here and there on my shoulders after cycle.... the rest of it vanished, and still hasn't came back.

I get some acne in summer (when the temperature goes above 65) even if I'm not on cycle but it gets worse when I'm running test. I used B5 but didn't help much. I got Acne wash from CVS and it was helpful.

This thread is very informative and has few links about places where you can get B5:

Tanning "dry", no lotion, in the broken areas helps clear up moderate acne.

I dont get it, some people can run low doses and break out bad.....watch pumping iron though and not one of those boys have any acne at all.
