    When does the acne go away?

    Its been almost 10 weeks since my last injection and I still am breaking out on my back,arms and chest. Its not terrible but its annoying and not too attractive. I'm almost ready for another cycle in a couple weeks. I thought the acne would clear up shortly after PCT.

    Unfortunately that is a chance we take, small balls that may never get bigger, acne that may never go away, loosing hair that will not grow back, getting hair that wont go away in certain places...

    You knew the risks.

    I know a guy that used right after highschool and had normal skin. after cycle got acne real bad and it never changed. He has pock marks now. So it is pretty presumptuous for you to say that is will in fact go away. Probably will but there is a chance it could **** up his skin for life. That is just the way it is unless you want to live in magical fairy land of candy where nothing bad happens in life.

    My pimples went away after 3 months and took 1 year for some pimple scars to disappear. But there is some left. It just depends on the person. Before I cycled I didn't have pimples. During and after dam I got a few on my face and arms. It was worse on my chest and back.

    i havent had a side effect yet just i feel maybe abit of oily skin but thats cause i keep my self healthy take good vitamins. acne is acne its no different to haveing acne from steroid then from your hormones changeing in puberty. It can go away sometimes long sometimes short, just keep your skin clean.

    Thanks for the input. I'm using the methods you guys suggested above.
    I did 12 weeks of :
    Test C 500 mg/ week
    Deca 400 mg/wk
    Adex .25 EOD
    PCT:
    Clomid, Nolva weeks 1-5
    HCG weeks 1-3

    I have done AAS about 10 years ago I broke out then but cant remember how long it took to clear up. Back then my cycles were low dose with no PCT.

    Im getting little pimples mostly on my back arms and cest area. Like I said, they arent that terrible but not pretty either. I am NOT getting any boils or large pimples. Ive seen pictures of some terrible incidents where AAS user was really covered with large boils. I dont think I have damaged my skin or that this will last for ever. I just thought that by now it would have cleared up pretty good. When I think Its starting to clear up I'll wake up in the morning and look in the mirror and few more new ones will be apparent.

    The first few times with me yes, now after a bunch of cycles I dont get it anymore. Have you gotten bloodwork done to see where your hormone levels are.

    I wonder how it could effect acne though, isnt white blood cells that fight infection?? I might be mixed up.

    Good piont, Im a big believer in giving blood, when I first started cycling I always was flushed, but now I get blood work done very 6 weeks and no red face anymore.

    Big Guns; my face sometimes gets really flushed naturally. I've never done a cycle, but will be in the new year. So your saying that giving blood helped your flushing?? Thats a fu**ing dream come true! I'm gonna give blood next week, see if that helps. Hopefully it won't happen during my cycle, but if it were to happen to anyone, it'd be me. This is great news. Thanks.

    hahaha aint that wishful thinking..

    stop training for a while and see what happens.. or better yet.. become bigger and then wonder why u lose ur muscle after PCT even if u train as hard as ever and focus 100 %.

    oh yeah, my acne clears about 3 months after cycle.. mine is pretty mild though in the first place.

    White blood cells are involved with acne.... oil clogs pore, gets infected with bacteria the the white bloods take over and cause redness... i dont see how this works at all

    Scars dont. And my back is covered.

    I WILL not be cycling without having BP done every 4-5 weeks and regularly seeing a private dermatologist. Or being on Isotretinoin when cycling and when "off". No more acne for me.

    I've ruined my skin using poxy Test Enan.

    I will also start another cycle on low doses and use compound with short esters to control sides and hormone levels in the blood.
