Ejaculation has always made my acne worse. Now that I'm on my last week of Accutane, I've virtually no acne - but when I ejaculate: Bam! I brake out. Every single time! Last time I did this I got 5 new pimples on my face within 24 hours.
If you have had the same problem and have taken Accutane, did it help? What can I do if Accutane doesn't help? Increase the dosage and time on this medication? Is there a cure?
stop w*nking?
semen contains traces vitamins and minerals, so supplement with the ones that are in sperm - this may help.
I have lessened masturbation and sex considerably. Now max. once a week. I can't stop these habits completely. It wouldn't be good for my relationships and I need sexual pleasure. Stopping these completely wouldn't be a good first treatment option. It would be like asking someone not to walk if he or she complain about pain when walking.
I doubt vitamin and mineral deficiency is the cause. How do you explain that I can get new pimples after three hours of ejaculation? Also, I think I ejaculate so rarely that it won't cause deficiencies. On top of that, I take zinc supplements.

true. I cant stop either! and i agree that it causes spots. mine normally hit around day 5 after though.. which is strange. you must be ultra sensitive to it then if its within hours!
zinc as far as i am aware increases testosterone, hence it being the main ingredient in ZMA (a body building natural supplement) so maybe stop supplementing with it/?

Yep, within hours. I may get new pimples the next day as well but not later. I might stop taking zinc but then again what we really need is someone who knows the science behind ejaculation and acne and how to combat it safely and effectively.
Supplements like saw palmetto are often recommended but some of them have serious side effects. I wonder who would be a correct person to answer these question. A good dermatologist, endocrinologist, herbalist or someone else?
^There must be a medication for ejaculation induced acne. Many of us have found the link between the two now we need to find a solution. Stopping ejaculation and abstaining from sexual life completely shouldn't be an option!
EDIT: If someone has found something that works, please feel free to share.

Well, i don't think ejaculation causes acne, it just makes it a whole lot worse. But right now, it's' impossible to say if stopping ejaculation and masturbating makes acne worse, as everyone who tries to abstain from it, just gives back into the habit after 1-2 weeks. after there's been no real sign of improvement, So there's no need for medication, when there isn't any confirmed or solid facts about the theory. The only way to conclude the theory once and for all is if someone stops for 6 months, and sees if there's any change at all in it.

Did you read my post? Especially the following: "I've virtually no acne - but when I ejaculate: Bam! I brake out." That is a solid fact. When I ejaculate, I get acne. Simple as that. You cannot, however, showcase it as a scientific fact because the sample is too small. This is also why your last sentence is false considering the context. But you're right that it might not be the cause per se since I am prone to acne but I've been able to eliminate some factors that aggravates it - but not this.

I used to drink dairy kefir and carrot/vegetable juice. Both stopped my ejaculation induced acne. But this is not a long term solution. My suggestion will be to get on a regimen. High end zinc sunscreen, retinoid etc. I am quite interested in this product http://www.acne.org/messageboard/topic/318751-boots-essentials-cucumber-moisturising-lotion-150ml-with-spf15/.
My theory is that most people nowadays starts ejaculating heavily at the age of 15/16. This doesn't allow the body to develop its immune system together with the anti -biotics that weakens it even more. Or maybe the pores doesn't gets time to shrink which accutane does. Then there is also the issue of oily skin from genetics, sugar etc. I am planning to go to a endocrinologist and see if I can figure out anything.
You can change your zinc to zinc gluconate and increase zinc intake from natural sources like pumpkin seed oil. Low sugar intake should also help. Other than that only a doctor can tell what is the cure for ejaculation acne.

Well, my face was white head free for about 3-4 weeks. I fapped due to the fact i could no longer contain the urge not to, and now this week ive broken out. if i get past seven days or atleast a week, my face should start to improve. There is a connection between masturbating and acne.

Try getting on a regimen and see if you still break out after you masturbate. I am not sure what is the exact timeframe required for abstinance to be totally clear.
I was on oral antibiotics for a few years, and my face was actually for the most part acne free. But long term anti biotics can really mess your bodies natural immune system up. So i stopped taking them and yeah my acne has come back in the last year and a half, but ive also had to deal with a lot of emotional stress. i simply refuse to take antibiotics anymore. Stopping masturbating helps a lot after so many weeks, but its hard to completely cut the habit. And most products i use just make my skin drier which cases me to break out even more. Water kefir seems to help. But im concerned about the sugar and yeast content effecting my acne. I don't eat junk food too. So you know, i have no idea on the root cause of my acne, other then hormones and genetics, as my dad had bad acne, and so did my moms brother. So it somewhat explains why i have it too. I didn't really have acne prior to coming to America to live, then again i was on Antibiotics. Another thing to note is when i had a girlfriend and i was sexually active with her. My acne was completely gone, my face had never looked so good. But when we broke up, a week later my face had broken out bad in really, bad acne, like the worst it's ever been in years. and im still recovering from that. During that time frame i was masturbating 3-4 times daily. Hormones can't be fixed overnight. Granted i've reduced masturbating, but i haven't completely removed it from my life. And untill i do, Hormones are going to continue to play a part in my acne, that and Genetics. I'm just going to completely rule out Diet as a cause though, i eat healthy, nor do i smoke. I don't even touch milk anymore! I was thinking maybe my acne is due to my poop staying inside my gut for too long? thus its leaking into my blood which = acne?
Ejaculation type acne is an easy fix on paper, but a hard one to overcome. One of which im trying to overcome.
Lol at this post. Ejaculating doesnt cause acne. I know an ex soldier that lost his limbs, and can not masturbate, yet he still gets acne everywhere. It is funny how I can type almost anything into google, put the word acne next to it, and there is an article claiming that is the cause of acne. Acne is most likely caused by bad genetics, same with a lot of other things. I.e, balding, height, hair color, etc. no one knows the real cause of acne, and spreading dogma like this is no good. Ejaculating is healthy, and fun. Go wank off, and relax.

For some ejaculation is the main reason for acne. It doesn't matter how you get acne the treatment is the same antibiotics, accutane followed by a regimen.

I strongly disagree with you, Ejaculation has nothing to do with acne. In fact if humans stopped ejaculating, the human race would end. So please, go wank off or have sex, in fact it actually relieves stress, and is healthy for your brain.

LOL at your post. Ejaculation causes acne for me. It doesn't cause acne for everyone which is obvious. Thus your example of that soldier is naive.
It`s the DHA that is being released in your body when you have sex / masturbate.
You don`t loose zinc. LOL. There are a few hormones that cause these breakouts, DHA is the main factor.
Ejaculation / FOOD/ Stress does not cause acne. They aggravate it for some people, that already have the ACNE gene.
Here is my theory on the acne gene, take some time and read it :
