Unless you have severe, widespread, and scarring acne, The Regimen is normally my suggestion for the most effective acne treatment.

Hey all

I was on tane for 6 mnths
Im now about 11 mnths post tane and have been dealing with small but stubborn breakouts
I wanted to try only 50mg of spiro..since my problems were minimal and wanted to avoid side effects

well Im breaking out more than usual and i have a HUGE monster cyst on my chest...never eveeeeer had anything close to this in my life!
Im seeing derm tomorrow
wondering if spiro just not for me..or going through IB

Kim

Hi Kim, Spiro is a hormonal treatment as you probably know and it takes a good 3-4 months for the hormones to balance out. I did have an IB for that length of time, I started at 50mg + Yasmin, went to 75mg + Yasmin and am not at 125mg with no BCP. Hang in there! What did your derm recommend/say?
