    Wash your face 2-3 times daily if it gets worst, just go to your doc and he'll perscribe you acne medication.

    get some b5 load up on it, wash ur face with a mild soap like proactive then use benzol peroxide, try dawn dishwashing soap on problem areas other than face, tanning, shower after gym,change gym clothes regularly, tea tree oil and if all that fails get some accutane.

    If all else fails low dose accutane...........40mg a week will do.

    I think if you wash with both benz and sal, it does wonders. I have never really had acne but I always wash like that anyway. Also after use a astringent and then some clean and clear spot and then some lotion. Man thats a ton of work, you guys see what we go through to try and stay pretty!

    B5 is panthenol. Can get it in powder form.

    Try 5g four times daily for 4 weeks and then 5g daily in one dose there after. (Mix it with water - be warned, doesn't taste good though!)

    Does me too, particularly Dawn as a brand but this is for shoulder, arm and back acne. I dont think lathering up your face in dawn is advisable, it burns the heck out of your eyes. For face, benzoyl peroxide, regular peroxide or rubbing alcohol would be things I would try there.

    You get a lot of acne on cycle, when you go OFF cycle, thats when things get really bad!

    If you run the prop each day instead of eod that will cut back the risk of bad acne.

    Bro, good luck. I've been fighting acne for 2 years and I'm finally beating it now. For me, It was all in the diet and timing my cycles right. I know if I ran test for more then X amount of week I would start to break out. I've learned my body and now is when I don't have problems with acne during cycle. PCT I get a few here and there but I took Tetracycline & B5 and I'm good to go now

    i've been doin b5 2g a day for a while now, maybe i should bump it up to 5

    i've also been using dawn on shoulders and face,

    niether has worked... then i bought a luffa? not sure how its spelled but thats what did the trick... your not trying to get rid of acne if you dont use one of them cuz after a few days of using one of htem it has all cleared up on my shoulders

    what doses were you using for tetracycline?

  19. #19
    Bro, 2g is not enough. You need 10g a day of B5. I'm taking 3 Tetracycline tabs a day.
