Terrible acne from mast help please

**Suprus** · 08-11-2012, 05:15 PM

Hey everyone,

So I am about 5 weeks into a cycle and things are going okay, but I have a question for some of you who have had problems with acne while on cycle. I am using kalpa gear and am taking 400mg/ week of test prop, 400mg/week of mast, and 40mg/day of tbol all kalpa pharma.

Now I got 5 bottles of the prop and 4 bottles of the mast. So I started off with just the prop and tbol. I went through the first bottle of prop which lasted 2 1/2 weeks and everything was going great. Almost no acne at all or changes to my skin. As soon as I finished the first bottle of test and started the first bottle of mast I started breaking out like crazy. I mean bad. I wouldn't even call these pimples I would say it was a borderline allergic reaction. Even after the first shot of mast/prop together I noticed it starting on my shoulders and upper back. So I continued for about a week to see how it would go and it just continually got worse and worse despite all my efforts. (2-3 showers a day, acne pads, acne creams). Finally I just decided to stop the mast all together. The stuff works great but whats the point if your skin looks like shit and you dont want to take your shirt off anyway? So I havent taken the mast for about 2 weeks but continued the test and the acne is still terrible and is not improving.

So my question is this: Do you think that if it were the test causing the acne, it would have shown up during the time I used the first bottle? Or would it take a couple weeks for it to start? Im trying to figure out which is causing it. I think it was the mast causing the acne but the fact that it is not improving since I have stopped is making me wonder if it is from the test just building up in my system and it was just coincidence that the acne started when I started the mast. And if it is the mast causing the acne, how long does it take for it to clear your body and start improving? Like I said the test is great and I would like to finish the test prop/ tbol that I still have, but I am not exactly sure what is causing it. Im going on a cruise in 5 weeks so Im hoping I can figure something out before then because my back and chest look like straight shit.

Let me know what you guys think! Thanks in advance

Its probably from the drastic change in your hormone levels.
We use a super effective topical scrub that does wonders on skin.
Been using it two yrs and I'm sold on it now.

Tanning and the acne body wash Blade works wonders for me.

Alin,
I think you are probably right about the horomone levels it definitely has something to do with it, but I have taken test only cycles before and never had this type of reaction to it. They were from different sources but ive never experienced anything like this. Im hoping its just the masteron that is causing this. How long does mast prop usually take to clear your system? 3 weeks or so?

It takes a few weeks for your body to react to the Test. It sounds like you took the Mast just as the Test was kicking in. I don't think it's the Mast I think it's the Test. I had acne carpet front and back on my first Test cycle. It took about 4 weeks for the acne to set it. It was terrible. I feel for you bro. What to do from here? I just toughed it out and finished my cycle. I used 10% benzyl peroxide soap and I found that getting out in the sun dried out the acne. It was still bad but I was addicted to the strength gains and muscular development. The acne went away after PCT. A dramatic way to attack the acne is accutane. I don't recommend you jump right into accutane. You need to try the vitamin B12 and other methods before you get desperate. The acne's just you body telling you that you're going through puberty again. If you can hang tough, it will pass.

Use a scrub with salicylic acid. Then apply Hibiclens. It isn't an instant fix, but helps me a lot.

okay. Thanks for the help everyone I appreciate it. I saw me dermatologist today and told him the situation and he decided to start me on an anti biotic to see if tht will help contain things a little bit. SO i guess we shall see. I have been using the benzyl peroxide cream and was and that helps to keep my skin drier and helps keep the pimples smaller but I live in Arizona and it has been consistently over 107 degrees the past 2 weeks so as soon as I walk outside I start sweating and everything flares up and swells up. Frustrating. But I guess you gotta pay to play right. So I will keep you guys posted and try to document everything for future reference. Thanks again- Derek
