    ACNE after cycle was over??

    I never had acne problems....ever....

    My first cycle test only 250 every three days....ended a few months ago and all of a sudden right about when i started my post.....bam....bacne....and it hasn't stopped.

    I have probably like 8 or so on my back at any given time and it sucks...

    I just started b5....doing 1500 a day ....been on for one week....

    I am really inclined to just do the accutane thing.....i hate this shit and its embarrasing.....its summer and i wanna have the shirt off if you know what i mean...

    thanks for suggestions....

    i am wondering if my blood levels are stable now and if that may be affecting it....damn...this sounds like a trip to the doc!

    If all else fails, resort to a script. The same thing happened to me on my very first Prop only cycle. The initial start of my PCT began and bam my whole back and both delts completely broke out. It calmed down a few months after but ever since then I've had slight acne problems in those areas.

    You may still have a fluctuation in hormones.

    But i would not go on accutane. Especially with only 8 spots of acne. See a dermatologist and he will more than likely try you on an antibiotic or topical cream. That should probably work.

    I think accutane should be a last resort and not used for a minor case. I had at least that many cystic zits on my shoulders alone when i started accutane. My back had them all over. I tried everything for ears and it was a last resort but im happy i did it

    I feel your pain bro. Summertime you want to have your shirt off to show off your gains. I'd stay away from accutane unless its completely necessary. Doesn't sound like you have it that bad though. It could be a heck of a lot worse!

    Your hormone levels are crazy after a cycle, it will go away.

    I had a little bit for the first 2 weeks of PCT and it disappeared pretty fast.

    Well i went to my doc and he said accutane is no longer on the distribution list in the US....HMMmmmm...anyway so he gave me a script for tetracycline...any experience with that? Been on it for 3 days and i think it is drying me out some....i will post results in a week to have a better idea.
