I had problems with acne on my back (especially), chest and face. I tried a number of topical treatments with various success but the acne just kept coming back. I finally went to a naturopath who recommended several things:

1. Chaste Tree Berry capusules- once a day to regulate hormonal imbalaces.
2. Good multivitamins- high in vitamin B
3. Evening primrose (500 mg) 2x daily
4. Ground Flax meal (with food)
5. lots of water

This treatment has been completely effective for me- I have no acne anymore. It works quickly with no side effects and no more annoying creams, etc... Hope that this info helps someone else.

nias:

if you don't mind i have a few questions:

what is your history of medications?

how bad was your acne before as far as severity?

how long did it take for this combination to start working?

i used primrose oil for about 2 months and just stopped last week. now my cramps are coming back full force and i normally don't have them mid-cycle though i can't say they'vehelpe with the acne much. it's probably the combination that works.
