Are you controlling estrogen?
Was on doxycycline for the past year..worked for the first 8 months, then acne came back strong...had to bite the bullet and jump on accutane. Been running the tane for 6 weeks now and seeing major improvements..going to run it another 50 days @20mg Ed with a meal..sides so far are dry lips, and that's really all so far... Good luck..I hate acne, especially in my 30's, not the greatest look..

Two easy things you can do (depending on location) are to get some sun, or go tanning, and to swim in the ocean. Both tend to dry the skin out and prevent the buildup of the oils that cause the acne. Tanning has worked wonders for me, also helps clear up any face pimples. I live in south florida, so it's a blessing to have both so easily accessible
You can get doxycycline off Ebay. look up fish doxy. I have used fishamox off there. Was the exact same capsules i got from cvs.

That's actually a great idea, thanks man.
Blue Dawn dish soap. Apply dry to effected area, scrub with a little water after sitting for a couple minutes, then rinse. It'll dry it out so bad it itches, but it is, in my opinion, the best treatment next to accutane. Do it daily, start using a non greasy moisturizer after a couple days. I use the unscented lubriderm, seems like the least greasy I've found for my skin
Oh that's cool. I'll check it outThere's lotion at walmart that has 2% salicylic acid, i use it.
Been there myself.There's a antibiotics medication called doxycycling that you can use along with some good antibacterial soaps.
Dht can cause some serious acne.No one considers DHT and finasteride?
Exactly..only a part-time solution.Been there myself.
Didn't work long term. About a month after I stopped it (3 months on) acne is back.

I’ll go in tomorrow to find it. Been using the body wash but didn’t see a lotion with the salicylic acid. The itching and died down and not it’s just big red bumps all over my back

The answer to your question is all anabolic steroids can cause acne and when you use them you could be prone to getting zits and boils. Some people are prone to producing more sebum and have overactive sebaceous glands. One of the best natural/prescription ways to help, is to go to Target and buy Differin gel and Differin body wash. It used to be a prescription item but is now over the counter.It worked very well for my little brother.

I've tried using every over the counter trick out there for the past 20 years and NOTHING works for me. I'm one of those cases that is predisposed no matter how high or low a dose I use. Aromasin definitely helped by suiciding estro but I still get those painful boils. The worst part is even if I can keep from touching it they still leave marks. I had to get my back tattooed to cover the scars.
