    so i dropped my ai out this week, and started taking peptides, my acne is the best it has been for months today, who knows if it's related to peps, but in a few more days will see if it keeps getting better.

    well i tell u what smart ass apparently u didnt read too well. the question i had about wasnt about ester at all! but that i didnt understand what the guy was saying.

    furthermore the term i had assigned to me is "knowledgeable member" not "know it all member"..

    is it possible that 405's vast knowledge base is predominantly diet? perhaps that's why he is repeatedly asked for his diet advice daily and has one of the largest diet threads running. or he simply never felt the need to use a peptide.

    it's funny how some guys think just because your name is in lights you know everything there is to know about AAS. if were the case, this site would only need one person to fill that role. lol

    incidentally jamtech, i would venture a guess that 405 has forgotten more than you know about AAS.

    I'm taking mod grf(1-29) and GHRP-2, 1 to 3 times a day but think I will do it minimum 2 times a day, although it's expensive.

    Weren't there some other threads in the spa section about certain substances you could take to get rid of acne? I've never had much success with just washing at removing acne, although if I go too long without washing and do something that gets me extra sweaty greasy and dirty then the acne usually is worse.

    Test cyp 200 mg a week split into two doses. was taking 1 mg of arimidex each week split as well. It seemed to help with acne at first but not really. Even on a lowered test dose for a while i still had acne. Although when I up dose usually get a little more acne breakouts, but then goes away to just moderate acne. I guess any time I change dose it effects it.

    Cool TR i showed it to my wife so i should have one soon! Thx

    Seionage i may look into these peptides to see what theyre about.

    Mickey thx dude! Appreciate the support! This A-hole actually is dragging a post from my thread in the AAS section over here and combining his Incorrect CRitique of it with his critique of this thread in an effort to make me look bad i guess.

    you are not simply washing. the texture is rough. you are scrubbing and removing a slight layer of skin. when i get out of the shower, my back is bright red

    only prob i have is i lift at lunch and the gym i use is one of those die-hard gyms with old weights and 70's style nautilus where the weights are pulled by big chains.. needless to say the shower has old painting supplies in it..

    all this = no PWO shower for me!

    Acne could also be related to E2 levels as well. Have you had them checked recently?

    I had some slight backne pop up once I started TRT, which is different because my skin has always been really good. Its not bad, but its just unusual that I get a pimple. Being on an AI didn't seem to matter either.

    Recently my back acne (not really pimples just a lot red blemishes) has spontaneously decreased for no apparent reason. If anything, I have increased my test levels. I believe my body has just gotten used to higher a test level.

    I use a luffa sponge when my back started to break out. I use it every night to scrub my back.
    I also use a body wash that has a scrub/texture to it.

    Also, if I don't have time to shower after a workout I make sure to wipe my back and shoulders off with some astringent and put a clean shirt on.

    Doing this everyday has cleared my back up a lot and put things back in control...

    I, too, am one of those who pays a copay once per week for his injection. Though, I'm seriously considering going to see an endocrinologist and looking into getting a script for my test and just self administering. I'd much rather pay $10/month for a vial of test than a $30 copay once/week.

    I've not had any back-ne myself, but I have noticed that I've gotten random zits in weird places: two have come up inside my ears and one down south. And yes, the one down south was a zit. LOL!

    This thread was started today and has 32 posts and over 1000 views. Far exceeds any abundance of other posts and why, because people want to bash other people, I don't and never will get involved in drama over the Internet but what you said has no other intention then to hurt. Seems like once blood is in the water, the sharks will come. You have been here 8 years, and should know the way to act amoung other gentleman and I don't understand the need for this type of behavior, what is it going to solve. I'm sure you heard the saying, "if you don't have anything good to say, then don't say it" well it should apply here too. 405 from the short time I been here has been a great friend to me and a very nice person. I think a standard should be set for how we treat each other, and 405 is that standard, nice to everyone, I would ask you give the same respects that you are given.

    See you around
