antibiotics

[lakelandrb20]

i am currently taking the antiboitic doxycycline to get acne under control... would taking an antibiotic over an extended period of time hinder gains in the weight room at all ?

i didnt know doxycycline helped with acne......i dont see how an antibiotic wouldhinder gains....i have heard though that if you stay on an antibiotic for to longf you can get immuned to it....

 

[lakelandrb20]

it helps with the bacterial part on the acne working internally to help the problem

thats probably why i havent got bacne yet with my cycle.....ive been on doxy for abou a week as well, but that was for the flu.

it helps bro for normal acne, but NOT gear induced acne. Steroids cause the oil glands to work in overdrive pumping more oil out (obviously) through the pores, which usually get clogged up through bacteria and dead skin. The only way to be acne free while ON is through accutane. you can pick it up fairly cheap from ag-guys and run about 25-50mgs ed or e0d through your cycle once you start breaking out.

Mechanism of the causation of the acne is the same with or without gear.
It becomes more severe with gear.
Severity while on gear depends on how vulnerable your skin is to acne.
Treatment is also the same.
Choice of treatment depends on how severe your acne is and what it responds to.
I get mild acne with test but not if I use it with proscar or avodart.
I normally don't have any BO but when I am on test, I notice some BO when I sweat.

It all depends on how vulnerable your skin is to effects of test.

Doxycyline should not make ANY difference on your gains.
