Comments on: Daily video #27 (research on women and acne) http://www.acne.org/blog/2009/01/12/daily-video-27-research-on-women-and-acne/ The latest from Acne.org and DanielKern.com Mon, 13 Feb 2012 07:54:52 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Ruby http://www.acne.org/blog/2009/01/12/daily-video-27-research-on-women-and-acne/#comment-34956 Ruby Mon, 25 Apr 2011 10:32:09 +0000 http://www.acne.org/blog/2009/01/12/daily-video-27-research-on-women-and-acne/#comment-34956 Hi Dan, I have spent three weeks on The Regimen and my breakouts have minimised - I am keeping all my fingers and toes crossed this means it is working! I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 19 and while the pill helped, it also gave me migraines which increases the chance of a stroke so my doctor refused to prescribe it to me anymore. I tried Roaccutane for nine months and it was ok - but no better results-wise than the pill I was on (DIane 35). I have now done one three-month cycle on Mino and have just completed a fourth of Doxy - Mino worked better than the Doxy, FYI. I have tried a billion other things and am really hoping The Regimen works for me! I just started seeing a guy and at 30 years old, I can't see him in the daytime in case he sees my awful skin and loses interest. The reason I'm saying that is to point out how important what you are doing is, and particularly to thank you for at least putting another option out there to try. If it works, and I really really really hope it does, I will let you know! :-) Hi Dan,

She has been struggling with severe acne for a couple of years now. We have concluded that her problem is on the inside. She has been to an acupuncturist, tried proactive, murad, and tried just about every single topical treatment imaginable. She has even tried accutane when she was in college. Back then, that was all you could really do was undergo accuntane medication. She got off of it when she got married and wanted kids but never had severe case of acne until very recently. She has had an increasement of stress now and even got a little on the heavier side. Of course, she has always been super petite. After having kids, that obviously added some weight but never this much before. Around 2006, she looked about 20 years younger than she does now unfortunately. She has been to many doctors and done plenty of research on this and finally concluded that it is internal rather than an external problem. Her insides are all messed up like she has some sort of disease in her liver or whatever causing her to get acne worse than ever. If you have any ideas of how to help her, can you please inform me? Thanks in advance doctor. My mom is 42 years old now. She has been struggling with severe acne for a couple of years now. We have concluded that her problem is on the inside.

I am a 21 year old woman who has suffered with acne since I was 11. Within the first year I started my period at 11 years old, my mom put me on birth control. I hated getting morning sickness. It really helped my skin- though I would have an occassional pimple on around my lip/mouth or forhead. I used proactiv occassionaly and wore liquid makeup. I thought in high school that I had bad acne! But I made a terrible mistake of going off of it when I was 18. My skin exploded. Literally. Painful cystic and nodular acne on the sides of my cheeks, temples, and jawline. It was so humiliating! My mom warned me not to go off of it, but within 7 months I could not recognize the person I saw in the mirror. Desperate, and realizing this needed serious attention, my doctor prescribed accutane, 10 mg 2 x day for 3 months. I also went back on a generic form of birth control because I couldn't stand being nauseated again. The accutane helped, but sure enough the acne slowly came back. I continued on that generic form of birthcontrol, and back in October switched to a different brand because the generic didn't seem to be working like in highschool. It's taken me years to just manage my acne, and get it back to "clear" skin like in highschool. I'm afraid of going off of it again, when I eventually want to have a family. I am on my 2nd week of the Regimen, which has had mixed results, but I believe it is working. :-) Thank you Dan, for looking into this subject. Birth control is sometimes the only thing that works with women since (I believe) a lot of acne is due to hormones. Hi Dan. I am a 21 year old woman who has suffered with acne since I was 11.

I watched this video, having respect for you as the person who set up the site, thinking you might have some interesting information about women and hormones. Why are you stating that we don't know how hormones and acne are related? It's clearly known. You just have to look into it. It's not helpful to be stating that it's a dead end when it isn't - that's the sort of thing that had me living most of my youth with a face full of spots when I didn't have to. You may be blasting your skin wtih this regimen and managing to keep it under control in your case - but I it may well take its toll when it comes to aging, and some of us are allergic to the chemicals concerned anyway. As for why it's happening - there are various theories that make sense, you just have to find them. I really hate it when people in positions of some sort of authority make statements that "We don't know" why something is or happens or the connection, when it's only the case that they themselves haven't found the answer - it's so arrogant - just say "I don't know" rather than give people who are trusting you to be informed the idea that your knowledge is the be all and end all when actually it's stopping way short.

During that time and before I had no acne, maybe a spot here and there but otherwise perfect skin. Then I went off bc. Within three months, I had mild acne that just kept getting worse. I treated it with differin and a topical retinol without much success. Other than that I used salicylic acid with moderate success. The worsening of my acne begins during midcycle to period so I'm guessing hormonal. It gradually worsened throughout the years, spreading to my back and chest, but then got better with consistent treatment until I was about 25 and went on Yaz for pelvic pain. It was a huge mistake! My skin that was probably 80% clear turned cyctic on my chin and back. I had never had cysts before. It cleared after 6 months, but of course I went of Yaz due to complications. Acne got really bad again. From thereon, I decided I am totally done with hormones. I've tried several different kinds and have concluded they screw up my natural hormones which apparently take months if not years to work themselves straight. I now use Dan's regimen and that is the only thing that is working. I'm going to start the AHA treatment for the lingering cysts on my back to see if that works.

I am 28, and was on OrthoLo for about 3 years before going off in a move to allow my body it's own natural rhythm and cycle. I noticed almost immediately that my skin not only went back to its acne, but that it was a much more aggressive form of acne than my pre-pill face. It seems to have targeted my forehead in particular, and I am doing all I can to avoid going back on the pill to solve the problem. I don't want to mess with my hormones for the rest of my life!

I'm almost 37!!! I had perfect skin until my 30's. Then I went on birth control for about 5 years, then went off of it 1.5 years ago. What a nightmare it's been, I've had horrible breakouts since, but nothing like I have right now. I think it's the clindamycin gel that was prescribed that was the nail in the coffin. I've had my hormones tested and nothing is out of whack, no sign of PCOS, yet my face is all sorts of messed up. Here's hoping that BP I just ordered will help, along with the probiotic, detox herbs, no sugar, no dairy, and of course no gluten because was recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease. My poor intestines have already been through the wringer, so no Accutane for me. I'm surprised the derm tried jumping to that so quickly - and she hasn't seen my face like it is now...since the clindamycin that she prescribed that made it oh so much worse.

My mother put me on birth control and my skin got much much much better! I would get occasional breakouts before my period but they would go away quickly and it wasn't anything terrible. Now I have just graduated high school (age 19) and right after my graduation my acne got pretty bad for the past month or so. At first I thought maybe just something that would go away quickly, but it really doesn't seem that way now. I did miss a few pills at the beginning of this month and I'm really hoping that thats the only reason I'm breaking out and that once I get back on schedule it will clear but because I'm getting really depressed about it! But as far as I know the pill really helped me clear my acne before I'm just hoping that it's not failing now. I started getting acne when I was about twelve and it was pretty bad for a long time.

I don't have extremely bad acne, but I definitely noticed that hormones played a big part in my acne. I would notice that a week before my period, my face would explode! Acne everywhere. Normally, I just have T-Zone blemishes every once in awhile. After starting a birth control regimen(not because of the acne) at 20 years old, I've definitely noticed a big reduction in the amount of blemishes I get around my period. I still get a few, but its greatly reduced. Now that I'm getting a bit older, I've shockingly started getting more acne, maybe from stress levels or other factors. So when you said that a lot of women over the age of 25 experience acne, I can believe it! I believe that hormones play a far greater role in a woman's acne than a male's acne. I think it also depends on what specific pills women are taking, as some cause different things in different women. As a young woman, I’ve had acne from 14 or so till now(22).

Based on the research we have conducted, birth control pills, like everything else affect everytone differently. Some people are just more likely to adopt acne than others. Products are not made to cure acne, just to treat it, it's just a matter of finding which product works for you. We focus mainly on teenage acne on our website blog, and have yet to find 1 perfect treatment for everyone.

I started having breakouts around my mouth and jawline and behind my ears about 9 months ago and went to the doctor....after considering a few other medical issues, she determined that yep, my acne is menopausal. The pill, on the other hand, has been fine for me all my life, until recently. I've had side effects that made it necessary to stop taking it... and suddenly I've got acne that I struggle with on a daily basis. If I could go back on the pill so eliminate the acne, I'd do it in a heart beat. As it stands, benzoyl peroxide seems to work for a while, and then stops working. So I have developed a voo-doo trade off routine of topical antibiotic, benzoyl peroxide mask, or salicylic acid. When one seems to loose effectiveness, I switch. I am NOT happy with this solution at all. I may try your product.... but the problem with benzoyl peroxide products is that the bleach my towels, my sheets, and my clothes. The product may be cheap, but the fall-out in damage to fabric really sucks. Hi Dan, I was on birthcontrol for 25 years and stopped recently because it’s become clear that I’m starting menopause.

I have actually started to use it morning and at night and it's so gentle that it really doesn't sting! and that makes me feel better about using it because since i was a younger teenager i have suffered with acne that has caused my face to have redness in the face and every product that i tried to get rid of it just made that acne worse in irritating it. At times I had thought that my skin was too sensitive and i worried over using another product that it might make it worse. I like this clear skin system because for the first time I haven't experienced any problems in using it. I'm glad that it doesn't sting or burn my skin at all!!
