WTF: Increase in acne post cycle?

[R1187]

I just came off test, and my back looks like the surafce of the moon. Thank god my face is clear.

Does this make any sense at all? Is it due to the hormonal imbalance?

Just seems like I should have broken out on cycle as opposed to after?

Only thing I suspect is the formestane I'm using due to mild gyno symptoms. However that will be dropped as well as it is supressive and I've got the symtpons under control.

PCT starts tomorrow. Have been waiting about 2 weeks for T levels to dwindle.

It will be 50mg clomid for 4 weeks, 60mg raloxifene, and DAA.

Really strange I broke out while T levels dropped. I'm guessing it was the formestane, but damn my back looks horrible.

Could be an estrogen spike, which will make your gyno worse

Its absolutely the test dropping off and estrogen high. Plus your whole endocrine system is out of whack. Not to mention your clomid and nolva knock off pct is not going to make you recover. So unless you plan on adding something to actually boost your natty test production its going to get worse.

Read my thread in my sig about how to run a real PCT without drugs. Oh...and with the blood work to back it up.

Some people get acne sides only during the transition from cycle on to PCT. This is a point where hormones can change the fastest. Shower many times a day, 4 or 5 isn't out of the question, with a soap for getting oils off the skin while your waiting for the N2 product for this (I can't remember the name). Tan as often as possible, beds if it is the only way. These basic steps should help.

This is a very good point also.

Sorry man, but you apparently have no idea how clomid works.

Clomid blocks estrogen at the pituitary. The gland responds by increasing production of luteinizing hormone (LH) . This in term stimulates the leydig cells to produce more testosterone.

So, yes, clomid is effective at boosting testosterone in men.

I'm not saying you can't recover by other methods, including yours, but I don't think you can just dismiss someones PCT and make claims that they can't recover.

scientific explanation is not always as thorough in real life applications. I get what its "supposed to do". But until someone other than a scientific article shows me actual before and after blood work recovering from a cycle I'm staying with clomid is outdated and not worth it.
I'm not saying it cant help a little. What I'm saying is that there are much better non drug alternatives. Regarding your PCT I wasn't so much referring to the clomid as I was the nolva type drug you have there.
