I was put on this medication a year or so ago and noticed my body acne has gotten really bad, more so than usual since my doctor has upped the dosage, i dont get acne on my face just on my stomach, back and neck.

 

My doctor wont say if its the medication or not, so is there anyone else taking this that has experienced acne with it? this is a drug that affects hormones after all..

 

Been thinking of just having my doctor take me off of it.

Yes, synthroid can cause acne.

 

I would recommend you read the Stop The Thyroid Madness website.
