extra back and arm acne..

[str8cubano]

I don't know but it's been years since I have gotten back acne, and never arm acne. could be that this is the highest dose of test I have taken (750mg), but I can't help but think its the proviron. Mid cycle, when I started using proviron, It came about. Usually I get acnce after I am done using test, not during...could it be the proviron?

androgens give you acne. proviron is an adrogen that will give acne and hairloss and other stuff. the high dose of test can also be part of your acne

i've only gotten slight acne from very high doses of test but i alwasy hit up the tanning bed to solve that issue...but a combo of proviron and high test could be doing the trick...hit up the bed and see how that helps

 

[str8cubano]

I have been hitting the tanning bed for a while now..it has slightly helped..still there though

proviron could be causing it. it is DHT derived.

yea, I'm not anywhere ripped so IMO it's not worth it...Im gonna drop that shit...gotta be the proviron

could also be the fluxuations in hormones (estrogen especially)

i never have acne while on, but the minute i hit PCT bam... disgusting!

20mg accutane eod while on takes care of that shit (for me at least) w/o the nasty sides

 

[str8cubano]

Man it really started hitting me hard now. I dropped the proviron, and like you said, I only get that shit after a test cycle. This is the first time I get it while on. HOw long can I expect this shit to last...I'll look into accutane..thanks

Bingo....it's the conversion of Test to it's more powerful, evil twin brother DHT that brings about the androgenic side effects such as oily skin, mpb etc.

Oil is the root cause of acne, so if you can get rid of the oil then the acne will disappear. Accutane actually shrinks the sebaceous glands that produce oil in the skin and is the ONLY thing that cleared me up 100%.

Six months at 80mg a day is the general course that's run.

what are the side effects of accutane?

what are the side effects of accutane?

elevated liver values, depression, dry lips, nose and eyes, sensitivity to the sun (you'll burn instead of tan), lethargy

you'll pretty much see all of the above to some degree

Those are certainly some of the potential sides, just like AAS have a long list of potential sides. Like anything else, It really all depends on the individual case.

At 80mg a day for six months, the ONLY sides I experienced where dry lips and sun sensitivity and some minor back ache towards the end....that's it. Liver values where good, no nose bleeds, headache, depression etc.

You definitely will be more sensitive to sunlight being that Isotretinoin is a derivative of vitamin A and will cause you to absorb more UV. So no tanning....

Accutane has been in use for over 40+ years and like AAS the horror stories have been greatly exagerated and overblown by the media.

 

[str8cubano]

I am a fool I was doing just fine without the proviron. Man, I literally only took that shit for 3-4 weeks and bam...acne all over..Dutas has been doing a great job of blocking DHT conversion from test..

 

[artificialaspirations]

i would recommend doctor supervision when using accutane.

Word. I can't believe you guys say the side effects of accutane or over rated. My brother had to be taken off of it after 2 months because his liver values got too high.

 

[FRONT2BACKJACKED]

stay away from accutane by any means if youre on androgens or anabolics

tetracycline is a mild alternative that works great 500mg-1g ew depending also sisterdrug minocycline works great for sumycin related acne and blemishing, any thing from the cycline family, topical clindmaycin etc

most all antibiotics make you sensitive to uv rays...

Run down to Walgreens and get a tube of PanOxyl $9. My son's Derm sez it's as good as the $70 prescription Benzoyl Peroxide. I use it, and it really nails the zits. I Also use St Ives Apricot scrub for really scrubbing my skin. Go easy tho, it's like washing with sand.
Those two help me when the backne, armne, chestne hits. IT'S THE TEST AND THE PROVIRON causing it. MOSTLY TEST. 750mg is pretty stout. Anything above 600mg for me and I break out like a sophmore in High School.

 

[SaladFork]

I was on 500mg's of test and around week 7 I broke out and by week 12 it was really bad, shoulders, back and chest. Four days after my last shot (ran 12 weeks) my skin started to clear. Even through PCT it's cleared up.

During cycle I tried a few things which didn't seem to help. Proactive and TriClear, work great off cycle, but on it did nothing. Accutane is my next route after reading about it last week.
