    2 months after Clomid and my back and shoulders are still broken out with acne!

    wTF, shouldn't i be going back to normal by now? i'm sure my test levels are back up because i train hard in the gym and my strenght is about like it was on my cycle. any suggestions? how long does it normally take yall to get back to normal?

    i had to get on antbiotics for my shit to go away... It was severe nodular acne. I was on Minocycline... Worked well and is safer then Acutane

    I have personally never had a problem with acne, cycle, post cycle or anything..But do you shower immediately after you train? I find that it helps prevent acne instead of letting the oil and dirt sit on you for a while before hitting the showers.

    Go to the derm. When I got off my test cycle last year I broke out for a few months getting worse and worse as time went by. Minocycline did nothing for me but Accutane cleared it up. Good luck.

    Thanks for the replies bros...I mainly want to know why it has gotten worse OFF of my cycle and even AFTER clomid....not so much during...i also feel that my skin was never clearer while on AS....WTF...are my hormones still fucked up? and yes, i always shower in the morning when i wake up and at night after my workout....i also have a back scrubber and scrub my back with phisoderm acne solution 2 times a day every day

    Clomid is not the reason acne occurs..its the dis-balance of your hormonbes after your cycle that causes the acne bros...even guys who dont use any clomid but nolva instead (or nothing) break out after the cycle..when using deca i never have problems with acne only if i incorporate test in my cycles the acne hits me after and the months following the cycle..

    Dutch, so it is normal to experience acne AFTER a cycle...how long does it typically last? ou think it's main contributing factor is TEST??? I tanned today and yesterday and seems to really be clearing up but who knows how it will be in a few days from now...thanks for the info. bro

    i know it sounds like bullshit but try rubbing alchol. it will dry your skin up and seemed to help me. im not sure if it helps long term.

    dude iam on test and eq, and iam taking 80mg of accutane
    and my shit still breaks out bad,
    your acne is nothing compared to mine
    mine is disgusting, i cant take my shirt offf in front of gurls
    thats how bad it is. If i did, they woud run away.
    Take doxycycline -- if i spelled that shit right.
    hopefully i only got 3 more weeks of test left
    hopefully accutane will start working better after i stop taking test
    iam half way into my accutane treatment and so far i havent got any results from it because of the roids.

    good luck bro

    DON't wash too often! This will aggrevate it more. Wash 2x a day with soaps, no more. Rinse more often if you want. Tanning and chlorine, (like in pools) will help dry oily skin, and kill bacteria. B5 (pantothenic acid) is overated imo. I had the same prob as you bro. Sun, cleanliness, and a trip to the derm. Doxycycline and some creams did me good. The derm is the key!
