bad acne after cycle.. why?

[(1*)]

did a cycle of test c with deca. doing pct light letro to clomi. during the cycle i got some back, shoulder, and upper arm acne but it wasn't too bad. been 2 weeks now and the acne has doubled.. how long will this continue?? never had it happen before.

May take 3-4 months to clear 100%.

is it normal to get worse 2 weeks after being off the test / 3 weeks of deca??

[crazyhorse666]

same thing happen to me. it was like I had bad acne after I was done with my pct. I really was wondering what the problem here is to

[stocky121]

your more likelly to get side affect's after cycle rather than on. Due to the fact you have low test levels and high estrogen levels

wondered how long, mines starting to clear 3 months after!

i got 2 weeks left of my clomid therapy
the acne has subsided 50%
although i have accutane on hand

i'm in the same boat as you guys... Seems as though after every cycle, acne gets really bad... mine's mostly on my back and ass...lol. I find that using a rough sponge, or those loofa things, and joy dishwashing liquid helps quite a bit...

[Geeezer]

was 5 months before I was over acne.
I only get a few while on a cycle

The acne continues because after your cycle your hormones are on a huge rollercoaster, when your body settles down and you're stable again, your acne wont be a problem

[J-41-sd]

everyone is different never had an issue with it while on or off. I'll chalk it up to dumb luck, also make sure that you drink tons of water and watch your fat intake that can have alot to do with it. Do you guys get it after all cycles or just bulkers or cutters? Any particular compounds that do it to you more or less?

Sides are different in different people. I am lucky that I don't get much acne but I know of someone who accually got scarred from his acne so just go with the flow exfoliate a lot and it will settle.

Best thing for me is having my wife wash my back, and shoulders real good with an exfoliate soap and sponge while in a really Hot shower, (Once or Twice a day). Opens the pores real good.
After each shower, I have her take Peroxide on cotton balls, and rub it all over my back and shoulders.
I also hit the tanning bed for 20 minutes a day as well.
Normally when the acne would hit hard, I would do this, and it would take care of most of it on me within a week.

thanks for the info... will try somethings.... who has actually tried dish detergent?? what were the pros and cons??

[jimboboway]

dish detergent worked awesome for me i actually put it on my skin dry and left it on overnight, and also used it in the shower. however i did find that on top of my shoulders where i put quite a bit of detergent my skin peeled but nothing serious. Another thing is you need someone to rub it on your back. I used it for about 1-2 weeks steady and it cleared up over 75% of my terrible acne on my back and shoulders. try it out good luck!

Wise man. The tanning salon worked wonders for me. Make the water in the shower as hot as you can stand it for as long as you can stand it.

Tanning basically did away with all my acne.

o yeah i had it twice as bad post cycle as i did during, but old lady has still been getting her acne med from her dermo and saving it for me. she cant use it cause it messes with her birth control so I get it!

get you some B5 and start 10pills a bay @ 500mg ea U want to take 5000mg a day it will go to work in 2 to 3 days stay on it for a month or so..the best part is there is no sides...U can take as much as 10,000 mg a day...

The same thing actually happened after my last cycle. what is working well for me is an oral pill called minocycline, its not that easy to find but it works very well. as far as natural ways of combating acne one thing that really helps me is going in the ocean because the salt water is very good for your skin but i understand not everyone lives by the ocean. the other thing is like shadetreejones said go out in the sun or whatever and try to tan

[BOBBY D]

it happend to me as well. right before my pct it started to happen & then got a little worse about 3-4 weeks past my pct. i would say it took me 8 weeks after pct for it to disappear.

Usually ppl start getting acne in the beginning all the way to the end. some ppl get it after as your hormone levels are coming back & the anabolics start leaving your system

[johnny juice]

All i can say that if you can go to a skin doctor and get prescribed accutane for the six months that your supose to be on it and you could deal with the sides then if your like me it will never come back that stuff is the s**t

[DSM4Life]

All you can do is wait it out, case closed !

If you take more showers it will get worse. (Your body will double its oil since you keep drying it out)

A lot of poeple say tanning works but again drying the skin out is only going to make it worse IMO.

[Budk024]

ya for sure it is is helps so much but the skin doctor i went to kept telling me that anabolic steroids cause acne even tho i told him i wasnt taking any. it was kind of awkward.
