    Cycles without the acne

    I am looking to start a cycle. I did a 16 week of dbol and sus a while ago and had large amounts of acne. I am not trying to go through the hassle of getting rid of the acne or hiding it. Anyone know of a good cycle without the horrible side effect?

    supplement vitamin b5 (panthothetic acid) in genorous doses
    run an AI (aromasin or arimidex) to kep your estrogen lower
    try not to mix diff types opf aas and stary with just one. preferably run test enth, test cyp or test prop

    I believe acne is caused by high estrogen, due to immune system over-response, and sebum production. i have found using a topical that reduces sebum production and controlling estrogen makes acne pretty much non-existent. dont get me wrong i may get a couple, but nothing bad at all.

    Aromasin tends to help my acne better than the others, I have no idea why.

    This in interesting, and I have wondered about this for a while. My shoulder, back and chest acne goes crazy, but I have blood work that shows my estrogen is low and rock solid. This makes me wonder exactly what causes the increase in acne that happens when my Test dose increases. I have a scrip for a medicated, tar based (I think) soap that I haven't filled yet. We will see how that works.

    Acne for me has been great and i feel that it is because of the Aromasin same with the lack of water retention love the stuff.

    Avoid compounds that are highly androgenic and/or estrogenic. Just use a light dose of test.

    Unstable blood levels usually play a big role in sides like acne. Regardless what your running pin it daily and follow the half lives of orals. You can also try an antibiotic like minocycline for 6-8 wks. Pinning daily will definitely reduce the severity by keeping your blood levels very stable.

    Although some AAS's will make you more prone to acne side effects (ie tren, dbol, etc.), this is a very individualistic issue. For instance, I dont get acne when I run tren, but that doesnt mean the same will be true for you. Taking precautions like mentioned (regular pinnings, use of AI, using cleansers and BP) will help control side effects if they occur.

    I did dbol/sus my first cycle and got acne carpet front and back. It SUCKED! My second cycle I did a 8 week Test Prop/Anavar cycle. Wow, no acne and tight lean muscles. It was beautiful. Since stacked on my first cycle I don't know why I got the acne. Dbol? The frequency of the shots? Did the Prop ester vary my endogenous level of test? I don't know. That's why I totally agree with the vet's when they tell young guys NOT to stack on their first cycle. I wish I knew more before I ran my first cycle.

    Same goes with AAS and all the other drugs we take. You can find it on the black market.

    estro levels may have there place in acne. Acne as it is a side, but it is always a individual's body that responds this way. I get hardly any acne period. also if i do get acne popping up it's during pct. and Running an AI during pct is not wise.
