Everyone is different. And, different AAS's can have different effects. For me, it's the fluctuation in hormone levels that cause some acne.

Unfortunatly I agree with you.

I just finished my cycle and acne was getting better, started PCT and it flare up again... Now it spreaded to my chest(only had back before PCT)...

Austinite has a good thread, somewhere, on this.

Zinc, vit-c, and pantothenic acid (vit B5), are a good acne fighting combo. As for diet, clean, lots of veggie n fruits, and some good healthy fats will help as well.
