Week 7 Struggle: Is This Normal?

Hi everyone.

I'm currently on a regimen of BP (Duac) in the AM, and tretinoin at night.

I had initial break outs in the first 3 weeks, then a significant clearing in weeks 3-6 (to the point where I had almost NO acne at all, and the few blemishes I did get healed super fast).

Now, after 3 weeks of being almost completely clear, my skin is going crazy and I'm getting lots of pimples.

I don't quite know what to make of this. Thoughts?

Hmm...Are you female? If so - is it possibly hormonal?

Yes. I had thought about that, but the bad breakouts started about 10 days before my period, so I don't know...I don't usually get PMS-y symptoms that early.

Well. Period started a few days early, so I guess you were right. blush.png
