    FINALLY figured out my problem

    After almost a year on TRT I have finally figured out I'm getting acne from the HCG , can someone please tell me how to correct this problem. Doesn't seem that an AI is fixing this issue.

    lower the dose or drop it?

    acne is one of those things some people just get... you can also try skin care products and things of that nature.

    Do you think splitting the dose up more would work....now I'm taking 250 3x's a week, would taking 100 ED work. Or should I just kick it back to 250 a week

    Scrub some dish washing soap on the areas that you have problems with. You will be surprised how well it works.

    Hibiclens has been working for me. It doesn't clear it up completely, but it has reduced my acne considerably.

    retinoids are a route lots of people use for acne.... rx is retin-a but it's in multiple strengths. bring it up with a doctor, preferably a derm.

    I use Saw Palmetto. I read about it somewhere and it seems to keep mine under control. Doesn't stop it, but it's much better than it was.
