    If you had acne from tren would you use it again?

    Hiya guys, I had really really bad cystic acne from tren a last year. Did a big course of accutane and all my acne has gone, just scarred. I have ran test prop 100mg eod with 20mg accutane through out and didnt have one spot.

    I am planning my next cycle to start in oct and was wondering if I ran 20mg accutane on a test and tren cycle would i get the acne back or will the accutane prevent this?

    Thanks

    no one can tell you that, your best bet is to try it, and adjust your dosage as needed......i dont break out in acne personally, but even if i did, i would always use TREN ....It is my favorite compound.....

    i dont break out much either. but i must say that 12 weeks of acne is worth the end result imo. unless you have some major sores going on i think it is worth it.

    Nothing is worth getting bad cystic acne. There's not much point in getting a great body if you can't take your shirt off because of the acne.

    Sides are common with aas,, but its up to the individual to decide if its benefits outway the sides from a particular steroid . Personally i can put up with anything except acne but thats probably because i used to suffer with acne when i was in school.

    Has anyone had personal experience of finishing a course of accutane then cycling again?

    Me and 3 other friends I know never get acne during cycle as we shoot and/or ingest our dosages consistently but all of us get acne when we come off. Some of my friends get it a bit bad on their chest and stuff but I get very little in general but that is probably because of some of the permanent effects of accutane which I took about 7 years ago and basically cured my ultra, mega, horrible acne.

    No point for me in EVER taking it again. I took it when I was 14-15 years old, just once, for 6 months and that was it. I will never have to take it again. The acne I get when I come off is so little I don't even worry about it. I believe the accutane permanently shrunk the size of all lot of my oil glands and such, so whatever accutane did do, its been lasting me for 7 years so far and I doubt i'll ever have a problem with acne again.

    For you guys that are getting acne, is it just on your shoulders, back, and chest or is in on your face too? If its on your face I would definitley be cautious. So far I have had very little acne and that has mainly been on my shoulders and now a little on my chest. Some guys swear that tanning helps a lot too, and thats pretty easy to do this time of year.

    If its getting your face, you may want to see a dermatologist about options other than accutane. Mine gave me a topical antibiotic solution called Clindamycin Phosphate, just apply twice a day, its coloroless and dries in seconds, has kept my face completely unblemished. Good luck...Nitro

    I took Accutane about 10 years ago but I still had a bacne problem on my last cycle. I'm considering giving accutane another go during the next cycle.

    In my experience nothing the doctor gives you works worth a damn for steroid induced body acne except accutane. I've tried clindamycin phosphate, minocycline, Tazorac, retin-a, Duac (combination of clindamycin & benzyl peroxide), and many others over the years. Only accutane worked.

    Wow, you sound like me. I have been prone to acne over the years myself and have tried all sorts of stuff. I took accutane in high school (I'm 36 now) and it did really help. The main thing I remember about it was it dried my lips out so freakin bad, no amount af chapstick could help. I was very worried about this before I started my first cycle, but it so far has been a non issue. First cycle is now over, I start pct in a little over a week and am slightly worried about it. Guess we'll see...Nitro

    Since you will have some cycle expirience under your belt by summer, consider adding masteron to your summer cutter with tren and test. You will be VERY happy.
